This image of a weatherbeaten tree, high above the North Wales coast at Sychnant Pass, is just one frame of hundreds that I took on that fine summer's late afternoon to compile my Sychnant Pass Time Lapse #2 video.
The scene was so lovely that I had no qualms about picking out a single RAW file and optimising the colours and contrast to bring out the best of this beautiful location.
