Penmon Lighthouse Sunset

It’s Sunday and I thought I’d start the week off with this sunset form Penmon, The Penmon lighthouse also known as Trwyn Du Lighthouse was one of the later lighthouses to be constructed in this area, and was, like many, built after a major loss of life nearby. It marks some rocks that are on the end of land going out towards Puffin Island (Shots Later) but also marks the north entrance to the Menai Straits.

We went down for a sunset shoot and the place was packed with fishermen, school trips, camper vans ready for a sleep over, oh and 2 photographers, me been one of them the other guy a South African, don’t think he’d made a special journey though!.

Anyway this is the first of many from this location, some great moon shots to follow viewing towards llanfairfechan from Penmon.

This shot dedicated to Rachel and Nick, lovers of this area, meee tooo!

I wont bore you with cut and paste blogs on history etc, google  Penmon Lighthouse, the best info  I found was HERE

Moonfleet Bay 2

Another from Wales, failed in getting 30 shots ready for this weekend managed 12, needs must an all, anyway back down Saturday  a

to complete the Wales shoot for this years seascape exhibition material. I was mesmerised by the rock in the foreground, I spent ages shooting round it from every angle, it seemed so out of place especially as it was so bright compared to the other rocks. My wellires got filled so i had to retreat, I’ll get it this weekend again I hope.

Managed my shoot at the care home today, such a sad scene, I cant believe how we get when we have dementia, I was gutted…..the care home though is a lovely place and the staff deserve a gold medal for their patience and care…booked my place already!

More later

Moonfleet Bay Portrait

Second of my Moonfleet Bay series, and yes it’s a portrait….I do them from time to time. It’s not that I don’t like them it’s just that I am lazy and get carried away with the moment then can’t be bothered to explore the portrait possibilities, I’ll try and do more.

Went to the Peaks last night, Higger, was a beautiful night but the sky didn’t deliver the anticipated results and was covered with con trails, the sun did do a red revenge but wasn’t nearly as good as the night before, may put a shot up later.

Back out again tomorrow

have a great week ahead all

Moonfleet Bay

Happy Sunday all

first of a series titled “Moonfleet Bay”, all shots taken at the end of a long days shoot on Anglesey with still waters and the crescent  moon adding to the scene. There was just enough remnants of the days sun to cast a pinky glow to the west.

6 days and we’ll be there again, should complete my summer shoot there then and have enough for my next vid. Great news is that Pendragon have agreed for me to use one of their track for this, thanks to Rachel and Nick….it’ll be a cracker.

Sunset in The Peaks later the sun should be deep and red so hoping for a good one tonight.

BBQ at sis’s later too, hope Stormy behaves, she’s a little partial to burgers..lol so am I!

Lets hope this week brings us all good health fun

Town Beach Sunset

So many images and not enough time to get them on the site……

dedicating today to getting 10 images processed and up, need to chase up framers for sales been sent, got deliveries coming, sorting workshop notes out, Stormy’s long walk, gym and to top it all…..guess which idiot put petrol in a diesel car yesterday …yup 1st time I ever done something so stupid.

Mind you the RAC wanted £200 plus but my mate owns a garage and he flushed the system for £20, so could have been worse, saying that I lost £77 worth of petrol/diesel mix ..a small price to pay saying it could have killed my car…. I can laugh about it now but I’m sure the staff and customers at Morrisons Petrol Station haven’t heard language like mine at that time in a morning!

Town Beach Sunset,  as the sea swirls and mixes the sand in its waves the sun retreats casting a beautiful orange glow across the bay.

ahh cant wait to be back there, 10 days and counting
