The wreck of the fishing vessel MFV Altmark, ran aground leaving my birthplace Briton Ferry, at Sker Beach before it reached its destination at Barry. Some days you see the ships gnarly old bones, studded with rusting iron pins the size of a man’s forearm, on others you see only the tantalising glimpse of a shape, a shadow, a ghost under the shifting sand. So many secrets, so many stories, so many things the coast will never tell. #shipwreck#wreck#coast#beach#discoverwales#exploremore#wales#getoutdoors #explore#ocean#sea#seaandsand#photography#seascape#landscape#ukpotd#brilliantbritain#uk_shooters#uk_greatshots#outdooradventures #outdoormagazine#southwales#capturingbritain#scenicbritain#agameoftones
If the rain doesn’t go, pretend you have snow. Longing for some decent light so I can have fun with my new gear. I’m still editing files from weeks ago, when everything seemed a hundred times prettier. Meanwhile in other news, in the space of a week, I’ve had to sort out car issues, we rescued a young pigeon from dying of exposure ( despite the fact I am fed up of the fact his growing family has set up residence under my solar panels, make a terrible mess and keep me awake with their pigeon noises ), came home from an exhausting day in work to find the cat had peed in my wardrobe . Why he doesn’t assist with the pigeon problem is another story. The loo got blocked with the copious amounts of paper I used to clean up the wee, and the u bend under the kitchen sink has become detached from the plug, so water has been pouring into my kitchen cupboards. All of this is somewhat blocking my creativity. Keep smiling linda, keep smiling . #snow#snowywalk #snowscene#landscape#landscapephotography #fields#yourcountryside#agameoftones#mylittlelife#reallife#ukpotd#gloriousbritain#picturesofbritain#wales#walesphotography #uk_shooters#brilliantbritain#ice#snowandice#february#lockdownlife#mylife#getoutside#photographylovers
Fire and Ice ~ Dad's been all morning, social distancing while sorting out my car in the biting cold, because I couldn't drive to work today. "Bloody 'ell Linda, I haven't been over the door in months, it's freezing!" he said. " I know you love spending time with me Dad" I answered. I knew that’s not the sort of spending time with me he would prefer .... but a lifetime as an electrician and automation technician, means he has more tools than anybody else I know. I drew the line at his idea of cleaning all the Avonmouth dirt off my car though ! I didn’t want us to avoid Covid, and then catch Hypothermia instead . I came home and left him in peace shouting at the rugby. It's not normal all this being apart from family. It's not even new normal. It's a pain in the arse, that's what it is. #ice #ukpotd #picturesofbritain #shotwithlove #gloriousbritain #brilliantbritain #frozen #fireandice #wales #southwales #yourcountryside #landscapephotography #lovegreatbritain #reflections #scenicbritain #agameoftones #professionalphotographer #mylife #naturelovers #fineartzone
