The story behind this video

A lovely summer's day on the North Wales coast found my wife Liz and I enjoying a walk along the promenade at Rhos-on-Sea in the late afternoon sun.

With the tide well out the rocky beach was glowing gold while overhead an interesting arrowhead formation of cumulus clouds had formed and was heading out over Colwyn Bay.

That was all the encouragement I needed to get out the camera and tripod for half an hour's shooting to make this time lapse video, relaxing on a park bench while the camera clicked away on automatic, much to the puzzlement of the passers by.

After half an hour the original cumulus street had decayed away, we packed up and continued on our stroll as if nothing had happened.
