A dramatic landscape photograph featuring still water that perfectly reflects a moody, cloud-filled sky. Distant mountains with touches of sunlight on their peaks line the horizon, separated from the water by a stretch of marshy reeds.

This image features a serene coastal landscape during what appears to be sunset. A gravel path, slightly curved, leads the viewer’s eye towards the horizon. The path is bordered by grassy fields on both sides, with the grass appearing golden and slightly windswept. To the right of the path, rugged, dark rock formations extend towards the sea, creating a striking contrast with the softer landscape. The sea is calm, stretching out to meet the sky, which is filled with clouds that are illuminated by the soft, diffused light of the sun. The overall mood of the image is peaceful and contemplative.

A beautiful landscape of green fields on a flat plain, with more fields ascending a steeply sloped mountain. There's a lake to the left in the distance and brilliant blue sky with fluffy white clouds. You know, just Wales being Wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿😊

Vibrant orange, red, and green foliage line the bottom of the frame over which can be seen the rolling green and brown slopes of Y Garn mountain and the dramatic ridge beyond.

Misty slopes at the foot of Yr Wyddfa, with patches of green and brown grass. The white woolly remains of a sheep, including bones and scattered patches of fleece, lie in the foreground. Steep, rocky mountain sides rise in the background, shrouded in low cloud, creating an atmospheric and somber landscape.

Wondering if people would sign this petition. There is a proposed massive #datacentre on the beautiful banks of the Menai Straits in N #Wales. There's so much wrong with this. It's a SAC (special area of conservation). The nationalised water company Dwr Cymru have raised objections that there isn't a plan for the water... one director of the company has previous charges for 6 environmental crimes... read more on the link! Boosts welcome.

Tonight's sunset is dedicated to @Grannybeelee on her birthday who wishes for more cake and beautiful sunsets for everybody!

You may think this looks familiar, and you'd be correct. But I can't help it if I have a crazy beautiful, perfectly scenic view on my dog walk every evening. So when the sky looks like this, you're gonna see it!

A scenic view over Llyn Bach in Porthmadog at golden hour. The calm lake perfectly reflects a dramatic, colorful sky in pastel pinks, oranges, and blues. Low-hanging clouds stretch across the sky in distinct horizontal stripes and partially shroud the rugged Eryri (Snowdonia) mountains rising in the background. A line of dark green trees on the far bank reflected in the lake.

A bright blue sky fills the upper half of the frame, with a single white cloud floating at eye level over the a green valley and the coastline in the background.

A perfectly still lake creates a flawless mirror reflection of a dramatic sunset over the distant Moelwynion mountain range. The entire image is washed in shades of soft pink and purple, with a dark line of trees lining the bank of the lake running horizontally across the middle of the frame.

A wide-angle shot overlooking a secluded sandy beach at twilight. In the foreground, large, dark damp rocks sit in the sand. The beach is surrounded by shrub covered hills. A massive gray cloud stretches horizontally across the sky, with an intense orange glow on its underside from the setting sun, while above it remains vibrant blue.

Very pleased that a Ph.D. student finishing-up her thesis has chosen to include one of my photos of Cwmorthin, in infrared, to help illustrate it.

The thesis is very much down my street, examining how the UNESCO World Heritage badge is redefining how the slate communities of north Wales are understood, largely pushing out significant cultural and social elements of those communities.

It will be very interesting to read when it's done.

A lake rendered dark on a sunny day in infrared light, whilst lili pads glow bright and somewhat transparent. The slate tips and mountains of Cwmorthin lie in the background and a house lies on the shore in the middle distance.

Ruins from mining operations in the mountains of Eryri are very typical for North Wales.

The stone ruins of a historic mining operation standing on a grassy slope by a lake in the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia). The stone building is made of rough block and stands roofless. Sunlight streams through the windows, lighting up the shaded side in patches. A wide gravel footpath runs along the edge of the blue lake which reflects the steep mountains rising sharply in the background under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds.

A clear blue sky with a large, fluffy white cloud hangs over vibrant green mountains in Eryri (Snowdonia). The calm surface of a lake below perfectly mirrors the clouds, the green hills, and the blue sky. A rocky shoreline is visible in the immediate foreground.

The short-lived Gorsedda slate quarry. Massively capitalised in the late 1850s as the Bangor and Portmadoc Slate and Slate Slab Company, it closed by 1870.

It's nature was best summarised by the words:

"Everything that could facilitate the works was produced, nothing being wanted but the slate vein. There was no quarry there."

#photography #slate #cymru #wales #aerialphotography

Stitch of several vertical drone images to create a single image of Gorsedda slate quarry, with stepped galleries, in the working style developed at Penrhyn quarry. Fractal fans of slate waste radiate from the workings.
