We visited the Elan valley recently and stayed in Llandrindod Wells. This was taken at the lake as the sun was setting - I was chasing (with my camera not literaly) these swans and got sun fun shots.

What is said about Llandrindod Wells?
"The visitors to Llandrindod Wells tend to be of just a few select varieties: those who have been asked to attend a ‘conference’, ‘training session’ or ‘meeting’ for work or business at one of the local hotels or custom-built conference centres; those who have stumbled upon and been charmed by Llandrindod Wells enroute to other Wales-wide destinations; and those who are returning time-and-again to ‘their favourite place in Wales’".

I don't know if I agree with this but there are ceratinly some lovely places aroundabout!

pp work: levels, cropped, framed, text.

I feel better now I've posted something - time was passing!
