Wales
Driving around Anglesey and Snowdon National Park in the fall.
For the fourth time this year I went on a trip to the UK, this time to the northern part of Wales. I’ve not been there before, but it’s easy to get there from Iceland and from what I’ve seen from others it’s a nice spot for photography. So why not.
I stayed in Caernarfon, which was an inspired choice. It’s kind of central, with Anglesey to the west and Snowdonia National Park to the east. There’s an excellent inn there I can recommend (Black Boy Inn). A famous YouTube video comes to mind, just kidding :-).
Weather was all kinds, both stormy and sunny, but I guess that’s par for the course at this time of year. I was a bit too early for the fall colors, so that’s a reason to go again.
The photos are take on an GFX50R with the 32-62mm and 100-200mm lenses, and a Mavic 2 Pro drone.
