Afternoon Light in Coelbren
Up in Coelbren last week and was enchanted by the view at the end of Station Road. To think the railway ran through here once and this could have been […]
Dusk Snow in Penrhos, Ystradgynlais
I think the arrival of snow during the festive period holds such a special place for us because we’ve spent our lives being shown the ‘Christmas image’ — the Victorian […]
Frosty Sunset on Brecon Road, Ystradgynlais
Morning everyone. Hope you all had a good weekend. I’m posting this one in defiance of the torrential rain we’re having in Ystradgynlais this morning. I’m no meteorologist, but I’m […]
Sunset Clouds Over Glantawe Park
The weather has been exceptionally grotty here in Ystradgynlais over the last few weeks, but the periods in between have been pretty breathtaking. Here’s Glantawe Park looking like something out […]
Frost Over Brechfa Forest
There is something so valuable about being able to get away from the craziness of Christmas. The blaring, repetitive seasonal music in the shops, the rush of getting everything ready, […]
Snow Over Caehopkin
Here’s Caehopkin looking like a winter wonderland. It’s so difficult to get pleasing snow photos in our country. It snows so infrequently and when it does, more often than not […]
Winter Light, Cwmphil Road, Lower Cwmtwrch
Right, here is my biggest issue with Cwmtwrch: It is so damn picturesque, and yet I do not have nearly enough photos of it! I can’t count the number of […]
Y Darren Widdon in Winter
I still remember seeing Y Darren Widdon for the first time. A friend had bought a house in Ystalyfera and brought me over to see it. I’d never heard of […]
Christmas On Station Road, Ystradgynlais
I’ve got a thing for fairy lights, and it seems so do Loaf & Cofion Cynnes. Christmas is definitely in the air now, and this little stretch of Station Road […]
Snow on Hendreladus, Ystradgynlais
Its the time of the year when the media starts whipping up weather stories using increasingly hysterical terms like ‘snow bomb’ or ‘beast’. But we still find ourselves wondering if […]
Winter on Castle Beach, Tenby
I keep coming back to this image. Taken just before Christmas a decade ago, I think it’s one of my favourites. Tenby is well known for being a place to […]
Moody Winter Morning Skies Over Penrhos, Ystradgynlais
Moody winter morning skies up in Penrhos. There’s an almost otherworldly glow when the weather is like this. It has that vibe of looming snowfall, though it just remained a […]
Sunset Over The Cross, Ystradgynlais
I was out on errands this afternoon and dusk was absolutely wonderous, casting vibrant hues across the landscape. I just had to take a moment to catch the sunset down […]
Snow on the Nant Helen Forestry Trails, Ystradgynlais
Another JPEG off my old phone so not the best it could be, but I wanted to share as I love the scene so much. Taken on the forestry trails […]
Storm Light on Brecon Road, Ystradgynlais
Winter tends to bear the brunt of the most criticism of all the seasons of the year: It’s dark when you wake, and dark when you head home from work. […]
Rainy Night on Station Road, Ystradgynlais
What a day! I haven’t seen the Tawe so swollen in a good while. The crazy weather coincided with a crazy work day, so whilst I didn’t have any time […]
Late November Sunset Over Ystradgynlais
Six years ago, I fell in love with this view while staying overnight for the first time in Ystradgynlais. Many a time I see sunsets down the valley, but usually […]
Winter Light in Brechfa Forest
After posting a shot of Caio Forest the other day, I went delving for some more forest photos and found this one of Brechfa Forest in early December in my […]
Light Snow on Brecon Road
Oh – my – goodness, it’s fresh out this morning. This one’s from a couple of years ago (the 30 sign is a giveaway), but pretty similar to how it […]
Golden Frosty Morning
0°c at 4am dropping to -2.5°c by 7am. A dry, frosty morning. I absolutely love this view looking down the valley on mornings like this. Cold mist, golden light on […]
