With the first snowfall of winter gracing the high peaks of Snowdonia, Liz and I spent a day in early December driving round and photographing in this visual wonderland.
As the day drew to a close we headed over the Menai Straits onto the Isle of Anglesey to watch the sunset and dusk overlooking Thomas Telford's iconic suspension bridge.
With snow capped mountains in the background and evening clouds boiling over the peaks I was in the perfect spot to shoot hundreds of still images for a time lapse video showing the onset of night over the Straits.
On reviewing the files later, I chose this frame to present as a still image, adding to the enjoyment I got from this lovely afternoon and evening.
