Thank you, Colin. I have fond memories of Wales.

Yes, most pleasant.  Where in Wales may I ask?

Agreed Tom, this reminds me of more than one day in the Netherlands
There's also a sense of mischief that John had the Z9 and 24-70/2.8G yet chose to capture such blurred motion

[ColinM]

Thank you Hugh, Ian and John

So this is a valley in the Black Mountains between Mynydd Troed and Mynydd Llangorse
There are many prehistoric sites here, burial mounds etc
The scenery and lighting were stunning on the day I visited, with many sets of thick clouds moving quickly to reveal bright sunshine & blue skies, then repeat.

It's just across the border from Herefordshire where I live
The words "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" appear several times around here in Google maps and they're fairly accurate

[Akira]

Adorable view and well executed.

Couldn't agree more!
