The Black Mountains

We went to Brecon this morning to do some shopping and on the way back we were impressed by this view of The Black Mountains in the distance, covered in snow. I deliberately didn't crop the sky because I thought it was interesting

Wonderful scene! yes the clouds are great :)

Lovely photo Sue. I think leaving the sky uncropped was a good decision - it adds to the sense of openness and scale. I've just looked through quite a few of your photos - they're beautiful and similar to photos I like to take (although I don't take them half as well as you do!). I lived in South Wales before moving to NZ so it was nice to see familiar sights.

I agree that the sky is interesting and this is a lovely shot - Fav

We have been to Brecon several times (daughter Natalies uni friend lives there)..... have never seen the sky that blue !!! Lovely capture.... the light is fabulous

Still waiting for our first "proper" snow. It snowed briefly this morning but it disappeared as soon as it fell.

The sky certainly adds to the scene - looks cold but lovely

[Craig]

Lovely view!

[Jane Morley]

Super shot, the no stopping sign is a lovely contrast too!

[Lis Lapthorn]

Very atmospheric. Well captured.

@nickspicsnz Thank you Nick for saying those nice things but you take some excellent photos. I hope you'll enjoy more photos of Wales.

@dizzyd Thank you for your nice comment Helen. We live about 20 miles north of Brecon and yes we do get blue skies here............sometimes.
