out and about - 2019

 

08 January 2019 .............. Penrhosfeilw Common

 

 

The high pressure brought a colder day with a northwest wind, and cloud that came and went - at times I had to wait for the sun to sun to shine on the bit of the landscape that I wanted to photograph - but sometimes it was worth the wait, a classic view across to South Stack lighthouse -

 South Stack

Some nice lighting out to sea -

Looking along the hidden passage - this would have been around a mid tide level, at high tide levels those boulders are covered, and you can paddle right through the passage - you don`t really get any sense from the photograph as to just how high the stacks and the cliffs are -

The three huge stacks that form the outer wall of the hidden passage -

Another good lighting effect out to sea -

Heading further round the coast, and the last place from where you can see South Stack, with a shaft of sunlight lighting it up nicely -

Further along the coast again, and looking out at another lighting effect out over the top of Penrhyn Mawr as it heads down towards low tide -

Round in the other direction, and a shaft of sunlight highlights the incredible rock sculpting in Dinas Stack -

Starting to head down toward sunset now, and another good lighting effect over Penrhyn Mawr -

The sun has now dropped down behind the big bank of cloud, and this was as near to a sunset as we were going to get -

 a sort of sunset

Except it wasn`t - a while later, and the sun suddenly appeared through the cloud just above the horizon - what a magic effect -

 the last of the sunset
