SLOW WATER

Another experiment with shutter speeds - 1/10 sec at f/32. It was so great to be somewhere I could play around with lots of little waterfalls to photograph. Wales again.

GROUP OF THREE

This photograph is in response to Kat's Exploring the Camera: Groups of Three post. These strange Welsh sheep were inserted into little nooks in the old wooden beam running alongside the stairs in the cottage we rented recently. Cute!

BETWS-Y-COED

Rapids at Betws-y-Coed in Wales where three rivers meet. An ideal place to play around with shutter speeds. This was at 1/8 sec which has smoothed the water falling over the rocks. My husband was getting very fed up waiting for me to take a whole lot of photos at different settings!

ROSES!

These were in a vase by a window in the cottage we rented in Wales. Unfortunately they're not real but they were great fakes!

PORTMADOC, WALES

I don't know what these broken wooden posts were but fancy they may at some time have been a jetty into the estuary. Portmadoc is a town in Wales, near which is the famous Italianate village at Portmeirion.

WELSH DRESSER

I bet not many people go all the way to Wales to take a photo of a Welsh Dresser! I liked the perspective of this shot but I know I got the lighting wrong as the window behind the plant is overexposed. I'm thinking I should have exposed for the light coming through the window and maybe used a little flash for infill. Any ideas welcomed!
