The land of Wales has such a great variety of landscapes
I am privileged to live in a beautiful area of Snowdonia in the north west of Wales. There are few places where rocky peaks can be found overlooking long sandy beaches. In between are sparkling lakes and fresh white-water rivers run through native oak woodland. The land of Wales has such a great variety of landscapes for a small country. The plentiful supply of water from above ensures a lush and green surrounding, and a regular supply of sun (yes, really!) lights it to perfection. This is not always a ‘chocolate box’ landscape – the many ages of Welsh culture have melted into 'the land that God made'.
I have a passion for capturing this beautiful land on film (yes, I really do still use film!). Originally my interest in photography came out of a love of mountains - I wanted to capture some of my mountaineering experiences. Later I have come to appreciate the many facets of God's creation and have a desire to convey the splendour of these to others. Not everybody can be atop a mountain for sunrise or on a remote beach at dusk, but hopefully these pictures will enable you to share some of the experience with me. Hopefully others of you will have precious memories of your own re-ignited by the images.
