In Snowdonia - Betws Garmon revisited and stormy Anglesey

Image
Overnight the rain poured and the wind blew. On the morning of the 30th December it looked as if the old year was going out with a bang. The wind was still growling and the coast seemed a good place to visit. We drove over to Anglesey through flooded roads, first stopping at Betws Garmon to see how the stream was coping with the extra load. From there we went over the Menai straits and across the flat boring hinterland of Anglesey before turning off to look at the west coast. In a small cove called Porth-y-Post we discovered the force of the Atlantic playing out, not as violently as it would do later in the week, but at least it was safe to watch. The first two pictures are of Betws and the rest of Porth-y-Post, these taken at first with a 70mm lens and then with a 200mm lens.
