Took these when I lived in Wales. Wales was a good place to get amazing photos, whereas here in Lincs, it is extremely hard work here. In fact, if I thought about it, I would say it is more my mental state about the area. Yeah, I didn't want to move here, to be honest. Tregaron was the last bastion for the red kite, a beautiful raptor we often saw in our skies when we lived there. Now after the introduction of Kites from Spain, they have spread themselves all over the country. The light falling on the bog at this time of year and its situation where the sun rose behind a high hill made the light difficult. Especially when the far lit areas where bathed in golden yellow of the sun, let alone the colour of the dried grasses. But you can see the blue reflected off the sky on the frozen water.

Loving the blue / orange colours, very beautiful.

Thank you. It was just one of those crisp, cold mornings, which had a brilliant sunrise. We went back there a week later to take some sunset images. They were photos I loved, sadly lost due to my backup hard drive crashing! So much for backups! I nearly lost these as my backup hard drive did the same 10 years later. Can't always rely on DVD disks. I was thinking of having it all online, sadly the cost of increasing my 4G EE internet became stupidly too expensive. We pay £45 a month for 200GB already. The phone system here is too bad so we also have an internet phone, which uses of course data.
