Another from my trip to the Brecon Beacons last week. I've finally found out that this mountain is Fan Fawr, situated in the Fforest Fawr section of the Brecon Beacons. I really loved the little pockets of sunlight poking through the clouds and after having taken several shots I settled on this one :)

The Halifax Historical Museum displays local history from 5,000 BC to the present day.
This fan-shaped fungi grows on many birch trees in the area. The textures are very intruiging.

This is one of my favourite landscapes taken to-date. It was captured while spending time with family in the Brecon Beacons. The family is often visiting grandparents who live in Brecon Town. Usually I rise early before sunrise to be back with family before breakfast, but this was captured on one of the rare occasion I found some time to escape late afternoon. The mist was thick across Pen y Fan but I wanted to try and hike the ridge path over by Llyn y fan Fawr lake.
I drove over to the lake and started the climb through the farmyard and over the river Tawe and onto the moor / open access lands of the Brecon Beacon National Park. This is common land and can be freely enjoyed by anyone. I never made it to the lake; it was getting late by the time I arrived, the mist was coming in, and there was just too much to photograph.
This was one of the captures from the day, a beautiful Welsh stream, meandering off the higher open access / common moor and down into the Welsh farms below. This wonderful tree twists across the river, bent double by the winds coming off the Welsh mountains. The mist just completes this wonderful scene.

On the subject of Anti Cyclonic Gloom, I thought I would continue the theme, this image from my Madeira trip back in spring earlier this year, the FANAL FORREST.

An interesting cloud formation that was drifting about and above some local power lines
Even though they provide nice open spaces to photograph cloudscapes, I've really got to stop hanging around these high power transmission lines. Their crackling and buzzing gets a bit unnerving when you stand underneath them...and I think they're causing my tripod to become slightly electrified. On top of that, my hair is begining to always stand on end, even when there's no product in it.
I'm becoming static.

One of a number that turned up together..
I think they were topping up on their movement further south.
Lots of feeding, resting and calling.

Ready to land after a failed attempt to dive bomb the snow for its prey. The Great Grey Owl loves fence posts for the simple fact it is closer to the mouse. This one was at a weird angle crisscrossing the fence I was standing next to, didn't feel like straddling 4 strands of barbed wire: been there, done that and all I managed to get is a hole in the crotch of my jeans with no shot to show for it. The bone chilling (50km) wind made me shiver as I was standing in the snow bank with a handheld camera waiting for some kind of movement. Meanwhile, the sun was going down stealing the last light of the day. You definitely have to be patient when shooting owls. Although, not the best shot, I do like the way the tail is fanned out and the look on her face as the lucky mouse got away.
Spotted this Indian Peacock serenading his hen in the golden rays of the setting sun.
The effect is so different from the 'daybreak' images I took a few days ago.
Here, the feathers seem to be sprinkled with gold-dust.

Saturday Self Challenge: An unusual angle or point of view
The ceiling fan has been working overtime in the heat! I experimented by photographing it against our raked ceilings and using one of its lights as a star-burst.
