I expect you are right about the lake John. The railway station is superb and the trip up to the top of Snowdon was brilliant. I would love to do it again.

Hi Rosa,

I always get excited when I see a place I know! I have lost count of how many times I climbed Snowdon, but living there helps!! If I knew you were there, we could have met for a beer!
I'll try and dig out some of the photos from there, loads were on Pano, but we don't have that any more.
Certainly a nice capture!

Best Wishes, and a good weekend.

Hi Peter,

I know what you mean! This was back in 2012 and something I had always wanted to do, and it was every bit as wonderful as I had imagined. We were staying in Caernarvon and had a great weeks holiday. Thank you for your kind comments. Have a great weekend.

best wishes, Rosa.

I have been up Snowdon loads of times in the 70s and 80s. Occasionally we followed the railway line but never took the train. Nor did I take my camera on climbing trips then! Now I regret that but it was too big and cumbersome to climb with.
A terrific pair of shots!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Andy Rodker club
It was the first visit for me Andy and enjoyed it so much...on the train that is ;-) It goes right to the top now. A wonderful experience.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter Castell club
It's a great place if you ever get the chance to visit Peter. It's the train every time for me! Wet and windy here today...we have to be careful what we wish for ;-) Looking forward now to more sunshine!! Have a nice Sunday.

A beautifully atmospheric mountain landscape, Rosa. I love the amazing sense of depth as my gaze moves through the image.

The railway image has a great sense of perspective, and a reassuringly old-fashioned feel to it.

Cheers,

Joe

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Joe, Son of the Rock club
I think it's the clouds that give an atmospheric feel Joe, and as we travelled up the mountain it became cloudier, but it was an amazing trip. Something I had always wanted to do. I really appreciate your kind comments, thank you. Unfortunately the weather here today put paid to my trip to Poole, so no post box pictures! Cheers, Rosa.

A breathtaking landscape shot! That looks like a very narrow gauge track and nicely maintained old train.

Yes it is narrow gauge Diane. It takes about an hour to take you to the top. I enjoyed it so much!

A wonderful Snowdonia landscape image Rosalyn...........beautifully composed in great light. Cracking shot of the station too.

I was up that way in 2012 too.........and not too far from where you took that shot I think: www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/19696939/in/album/404815

A scene and photo as good as this should be shared Rosa and so I am glad you pulled it out of retirement. As Keith say, wonderful lighting and p.o.v here. I seem to remember that it was very cloudy when I was here many years back now.
Great PiP too.
Cheers, Herb

I think it is a cairn in the foreground Tanja. I looked it up in German and it says "steinhaufen". This was my first and only visit to Snowdonia and I enjoyed it so much. Thank you for your kind comments.
