Hi Stu,
That breeze stayed away so nice reflections. Looks like the cloud cover killed the sunrise lighting a little though?
Of the series I'd pick the first as my favourite, the lighting has a pleasant twilight sort of look to it and the compositions nicely balanced, might be tempted to crop it ever so slightly on the right to remove the half rock & left to remove some of the gravel - just a thought anyway.

Thanks Simon
THere a number of items I was tempted to crop out or worse clone but decided to leave them as they are but I do see your point.
Very little breeze but the cloud cover came in earlier than expected but I suppose we couldn't and didn't expect perfect conditions

Nice set of pictures Stu. Lovely exposures. Little bit of work still needed to some in the cropping and leveling depts. Maybe also try some not taken from eye level. Great job, from a lovely scene.

Thanks Guys
Cliff, although it wasn't totally as planned it was worth it
Howard, that wasn't me, thankfullly, we were around Tryfan area, Llyn Idwal after Llyn Crafnant and the RAF were very busy then, the fuel bill for the helicopter yesterday must have been astonomic
Photo's from Llyn Ogwen and Llyn Idwal will follow when I get time - sadly not right now as I am in work
Cheers

A very nice set altogether. My favourites are number 1 + 2, I like the light and composition in these two especially well. For me as a Norwegian, the scenery looks almost like a fjord, but Llyn Crafnant is probably a lake...:
I hope to get a chance to travel to Wales sometime in the future, based on these and other photos it seems like a country with magnificent scenery
Best regards
Bjørn

Hi Stuey, the first and third from last are cracking shots which have a nice balanced feel to them, well done

Thank you for the comments Guys
Bjorn, thank you for the kind comments, LLyn Crafnant is actually an old reservoir, closest option I suppose is a lake but I thought I would mention it to avoid being corrected
If you do visit Wales Bjorn there is a wide range of varying scenery without being too far apart, if you plan it well you will have quite a variety without too much travelling but the rain is warmer in the Summer months
Robin, thank you for your comment, my favourite is also number one
Thanks again all
