The story behind this video

A lovely day in late spring 2025 was the perfect excuse for my wife Liz and I to hop in the car and set off for a drive through some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK.

North Wales, of course! And in particular the wonderful A543 Sportsmans Pass road between Denbigh and Pentrefoelas which crosses the high, rolling landscapes of the Denbigh Moors.

With light cumulus clouds scudding across the sky, casting a moving patchwork of sunlight and shadow on the fields below, I just had to stop by the side of the road to film this idyllic countryside scene, with flocks of sheep and lambs dotting the green pastures stretched out before me.

So a serene twenty minutes followed, with nothing but the click of a shutter and the far off bleating of the sheep to disturb the tranquility.

And then it was off to admire the next stunning view.

We're just so blessed to live in this wonderful example of God's beauty in His creation.
