Snowdonia

Read more about Wales + Snowdonia on the blog.

 

Wales lives up to its dragon heritage: mystery, mood, mountains. No region captures all three so well as Snowdonia National Park.

 

It’s slow work combing through photos—frankly, my editing skills aren’t up to the task of trying to recreate the mood of this region with its mix of Scotland, Yosemite, and the Alps in its stony roots.

 

On a foggy night, the drama is increased tenfold. It’s the sort of place I can listen to Richard Strauss’ Eine Alpensinfonie and drive for hours without a destination.

 

I hope I’ll discover a much more artistically valuable shot, but till then I’ll have to mentally reconstruct the mystery, mood, and mountains from this shot.

 

Snowdonia, Wales, UK.
