Stiperstones - Sunday 8th September



Crap weather in Wales is a good excuse for getting up late on a Sun, not been out to the Stiperstones for a while, only about an hour away so worth it to fit in a quick walk in between the showers. Some big clouds brewing so perfect for a bit of drama.
Quite a few local legends about this place, link below will explain better than me, but it's not to hard to let your imagination amble off when the weathers up for for a turn on these hills.

But on a misty damp day, if anyone can remember the aussie movie 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' then conjuring up the  atmosphere won't do your nerves any good. All I intended to do was bimble around and take a few snaps maybe a bit of a lazy boulder. I wanted try out some HDR on grit.
