Stu,

Another vote of thanks for your efforts (and picking the right day for the weather).

The company was great and I enjoyed the day enormously.

Here's a couple.





I used to use this lens a lot for hiking with the *istD, it makes a pretty compact package:

There are also a bunch of images taken with this combination at www.pbase.com/davekitson/Landscapes/MountainWalks

Hi,

Just checking my understanding for next Saturday..

Are we definitely meeting in Llanberis 08:00-08:30?.

If so, in the car park or Petes Eats? From memory, I think the cafe opens at 08:00.

Not great art, but there are images of this area on my Pbase album at http://www.pbase.com/davekitson/landscapes. Might give some ideas.

One intended attendee here..

I am just over 2hrs from Capel Curig, so can make most locations at any reasonable time.

(reasonable is defined as not before 07:00)

20th April looks OK for me....

I'm up for this, subject to date and absence of flu etc..

I know the area well, having rock-climbed the area for > 40years. The fingers and knees have put an end to that chapter of my life but I still enjoy walking in the area.

I always think there should be great images there, but I am afraid that my artistic skills are such that I have never succeeded in getting the results that I would like ( one reason that I am keen to see what other photographers make of situations).

I can't make 6th/7th April as I am in Cornwall from 6th to 12th (hoping for some good images) so I will watch this thread to see what emerges.

I've got flu and unless I improve substantially today, will not be coming.

It's a disappointment. I hope you guys have a good day and look forward to seeing your images.

Hi all,

This is a first for me..

Went up to Pistell Rhaeadr in Powys jut before the snow went (the road journey was far worse the the walk).

Took a lot of pictures but was rather disappointed, the light was very flat and most of the images were very monochromatic. Still, it got me out from in front of the TV.

Just spotted this thread and would be interested in joining in if there's room for a (not so) little one.
