By the time i got to the top my hands were literally frozen, the wind was sharp and cut you up , but it was worth it. 2 and 1/4 mile climb............

The weather forecast did not disappoint and the walk to the top in the dark to catch the winters sunrise hitting Pen Y Fan and Corn du was fantastic a morning I shall not forget.

The one on the left of the image that sat stubbornly on top of Penyfan on Wednesday. It was a pity that we didn't get to the top, but hey, got fenced Friday shot on the route back down!

There's no special effects to this capture except I dropped the brightness or light or something ( can u tell I'm not very much into the post-processing stuff!) could not quite believe the colour in the water. It's another from the Penyfan trip

The Neuadd reservoir and valley , sits serenely below the stunning mountain backdrop , of the Penyfan Ridge .
Pen y Fan is the highest peak in South Wales and southern Britain, situated in the Brecon Beacons National Park. At 886 metres (2,907 ft) above sea-level, it is also the highest peak in Britain south of the Snowdonia mountain range.
The mountain and surrounding area are owned by the National Trust . Work parties attempt to combat the erosion ,caused by the passage of thousands of feet ,up and down this most popular of South Wales' peaks. The mountain is used by the military as part of the selection process of the UK's Special Forces personnel.
Magical and dreamlike.

Actually I’m stretching the truth as there were clouds around, just that there were vast swathes of clear blue sky in the Brecon Beacons, Pen y Fan was beautiful
the wind last night was freezing - wanted to stop for sunset but to cold as i arrived here hail stones met me - something so romantic about this place and view

*A poor attempt at sarcasm - the temperature inversion this morning was stunning and being above the clouds was a real treat.
I've been really impressed so far with the nikon 70-200 f/4 - it's fast and pretty sharp. I want to use it for flock flight shots and close-up flight shots e.g. when puffins just get too close on the Farnes etc. however it works really well for landscapes too.
Misty clouds over Penyfan and Corn Ddu.
Very dangerous for walkers sometimes.
Breconshire, South Wales.
Hubby knew when we went up Penyfan the other week that there’d be photo stops but don’t think he’d appreciate that we’d be stopping before we actually got there!
This is the last reservoir on the south side of Penyfan, I love these stretches of water, actually I love water full stop!
Thanks for stopping
This is a slight reworking of an image from last year.
From last summers trip to the Brecon Beacons in south Wales. After trekking for several hours from the bothy down in the valley in ever changing conditions we finally made the summit of Pen y Fan with this incredible view across towards Cribyn and beyond.
