Didn't shoot a lot on holiday as was too busy enjoying family time but I did take the camera to a place called Cardigan Island Farm Park. Once you get past the animal petting and feeding enclosures you are greeted with the coastal path that over looks the sea and cliffs and also Cardigan Island.

All Pentax K1 and either D FA 24-70mm or the Irix 15mm. The seal (spoiler) is with the DA* 60-250mm

Lighting on no 2 is really nice and the sea-fog/ mist in no 6 as well. Good set!

2 and 3 for me - nice to see the two slightly different perspectives of the same subject making very different final images

The mist in No. 6 raises it a notch above the rest for me .

Can't make my mind up about No. 5 - I like the cliffs disappearing into the mist, but looking at the cliff top at the bottom of the picture makes me feel like I'm about to fall over the edge .

Glad I'm not the only one who thought "Woah!" when you looked over the edge. I also like how you have presented several versions of the same shot.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

A lovely set Gareth - The misty scene in No. 6 is my favourite.

Thank you all, very kind words.

Such a stunning location and one that's now going to be a yearly excursion with the family on holiday
