Elan Valley - Ceredigion - Wales

A glaciated valley in west Wales. The late afternoon light scattered accross the valley floor.

Cruglas Farm - Swyddffynnon - Wales

Two swans were passing the lake on Cruglas Farm. I had been trying to take a photograph of the farmhouse, but the dark sky didn't clear up for the shot. I was just about to leave when I saw two swans in the distance heading my way. I quickly got my other camera out with a zoom lens attached and underexposed the image so that the sky would be even darker than it was giving the white figures more prominence within the photograph. I knew when I first saw them that it was going to be a black and white image.
