Photographing waterfalls

Waterfall Country is the name given to an area around the head of the Vale of Neath in South Wales where an unusually large number of publicly accessible waterfalls are located.  I travelled there is February 2017 the day before Storm Doris struck the UK bringing torrential rain and winds that reached 94 mph to the Brecon Beacons where I was staying.  Undeterred I managed to get a few half-decent photographs of Henrhyd and Sgwd Ddwli Falls that made me determined to make a return visit in the hope of experiencing better conditions.

Fast forward to January 2020 and I booked a two week trip to Wales,  The first week was to be spent in the Brecon Beacons so I could revisit the Waterfall Country and the second week would see me staying at Beddgelert in North Wales hoping to photograph besides the beautiful landscape of Snowdonia two other photogenic waterfalls I particularly wanted to visit – Swallow Falls near Betws-y-Coed and Aber Falls which is located about two miles south of the village of Abergwyngregyn.

By March coronavirus arrived and along with everyone else I have been in lockdown for most of the time since – my eagerly anticipated trip was cancelled and currently I am not planning to be in Wales before next Spring  – if all goes well...!
