Brecon Beacons — Pen y Fan & Corn Du


Most often, I prefer mild settled weather, but the Brecon Beacons are an exception to my rule. Nothing can beat the atmosphere in autumn generated when the clouds are running low and just shroud the mountain tops in white billowing cloud. Whilst in contrast, dark grey shadows on the landscape are punctured by pools of bright watery sunlight.

Mid Wales offers a spectacular and diverse landscape that is for me at its most impressive in changeable autumn weather.

Above, are quick, small sketches, attempting to capture an ever-changing view. But I am not fast enough, every time I look up from my sketchbook, nature has swiftly modified the scene.
