Never shot a sunrise here until the other, very pleasant way to spend a few hours
Waiting for the Milky Way.....we watched the sun go down and by the time we got home it was on its way back up. We were joined by some porpoises just after sunset...which was nice!
Ynys Llanddwyn with Twr Mawr and Twr Bach
I'm so looking forward to a walk out here again.......
A quick paddle over to Llanddwyn to catch Sunset
Anglesey
Llanddwyn Island seasonal bloomer
Llanddwyn Island, Anglesey
on an island, on an island, on an island.....with a lighthouse....
The boy was off destroying various parts of Loggerheads with his school on Monday and Tuesday so Mrs M decided we were having a bit of a history tour. Fountains Abbey on Monday, more pics to bore you with over the coming week, then she fancied Llanddwyn on Tuesday for sunset, which didn't really materialise. So she took herself off whilst I set up and read all the various notice boards and reported back to my speck on the side of the cliff so I'm now quite well informed for any future visits! On a side note, stopped off for tea at The Bridge Inn by the Menai Bridge, best beef and ale pie ever!
Llanddwyn Island - Tŵr Mawr Lighthouse
Well what a disaster Saturday night was. Lake District was on after work then the weather forecast changed so Anglesey it was. Got to within a couple of miles of South Stack and it changed from glorious clear skies to huge amounts of sea mist so much so that you couldn't see the lighthouse when we got there...back up plan quickly formulated....St Cwyfan's church.....covered in sea mist........ok Llanddwyn Island again....Only the Milky Way is in the wrong place and the tide is coming in so this is the best one from a bad bunch.... Oh and wake up to find I missed the Aurora....Happy days!!!
Probably my favourite place in Wales.
Llanddwyn Island at Sunrise
Wish I'd done a 10 min or so exposure at low ISO on the foreground, never mind....just have to go back!
Non long exposure version!
Sunset at Twr Mawr
Twy Mawr lighthouse sits on the small tidal island of Llanddwyn in Anglesey, North Wales ... A place I have longed to visit & photograph ... We were...
