waterfall country

[Rybear]

after having a break from photography  since 2014  i've recently got back into it ...did take  a few pics in 2016 and put them on here but that was a false start....since august i've been bitten by the bug again and i go out as often as i can now ...i vowed when i started back up that i would try and go places i've never been before and i've been pretty good at keeping to it ...i have a few months worth of pics so i will put them slowly up over the next few weeks.

i had never been to waterfall country , even though i only live about 20 miles away....it was on my bucket list  so last august i got off me fat behind and took a walk up the valley...i was blown away by the place ....

.

 

i'll put the other images up over the next few weeks

Hi Ryland ... how good to see you back on the forum ... I missed your visit in 2016  but I hope the time has helped  a bit since your last visit ...  You  live in a part of Wales so close to some of my favourite places  too ...     Fancy living just 20 miles away from the beautiful scenery that you’ve captured.  Lucky you .  

 Some effective long exposures there and some nicely constructed compositions with some good foreground interest .  I hope you pop in more often and join in again  now that you’re re-finding your photography mojo ..  A big welcome back Ryland ...

Oh I'm back... It's cost me a fortune... Camera upgrade... New  tripods... Filters... Remotes... I've found my mojo again and really enjoy going out with the camera now.. Another very recent circumstance change means I can no longer go on the long range trips to North Wales... But I live on the gower peninsula so there's plenty of places in the local area to photograph .... I've always struggled taking pics on gower though... I think growing up with all these spectacular views has made me take it for granted and I struggle to find compositions... But that's something to work on isn't it... I got 5 months worth of photo trips to share so you'll see a lot of posts over the next few weeks

Well ..Oxwich beach/ bay, Rhosilli, the Mumbles , WormsHead are all places that are top of my list  but need a five hour round trip to visit so you are lucky ...   it’s easy to take our local environment for granted though I agree... I think we can all be guilty of that .   So more please ....

Very attractive images: nicely composed and lovely colours.

A lovely set with number three being the standout shot for me - great work!

Welcome back to TIPF, btw - dive in and post, comment and join in with the daft banter.

Very nice milky water effect in what looks a very nice place to take a camera. Nice set, and welcome back.

Very nice series, the second one in particular.  I'm not dead against milky water but it works for me in the second but not in the first.  Nice compositions, all of them.
