Surely one of the loveliest views in the world, and one of the most photographed locations in North Wales.
This is the iconic view of the Snowdon horseshoe ridge, as seen from the far end of Llyn Mymbyr in Snowdonia.
Beautiful as a still photo, the scene is even more impressive as a time lapse video, with the ever present clouds swirling over the summit of Snowdon as the light of the setting sun paints the scene in glowing coruscations of colour.
Never the same twice, this view always entrances me.
