Sgwd Gwladys Waterfall

After the heavy rains over the past few days, we went for a walk around the waterfalls of Pontnedfechan. This is Sgwd Gwladys waterfall taken from a low viewpoint whilst standing in the river.

Ogof Ffynnon Ddu 1

Another caving trip today into Ogof Ffynnon Ddu 1 which is the lower end of this large cave system in South Wales, it was also a try out for my new caving camera, a Olympus TG2 all lighting was supplied via a remote flashgun.

Box Stone Mine

We visited Box Stone Mine today, this is a vast complex of tunnels where you can easily get lost, good job we had a good guide with us today. As you can see from the photos, there are a lot of old mining artefacts still left in place.

The Old Workshop

I visited Big Pit mining museum today in order to view the 2013 PAGB photo salon, which is well worth viewing with a very wide range of high quality photography.  Anyway whilst I was there, I managed to take a few shots, here is one from the old workshop which I was quite pleased with, plus one showing the pit head gear.

Barons Cross Lawnmower Race

This was the final round of the WMLMRA and was held a The Barons Cross pub in Leominster.

Africa

This autumn we travel overland from South Africa, to Namibia , then Botswana and finally ending up in Zimbabwe. As you could imagine we seen a lot of wildlife throughout our trip, here is just a small example.

Brecon Fringe

Again this was yet another very well attended event with good weather and lots of free music being played at many venues around the Brecon area. I managed to capture quite a few images over this weekend, here are just a few.
