Photos from the Brecon meet

[DuncanDisorderly]

This thread is for photos taken on the TP Brecon Beacons meet.
I'll start!

1) Shivering, sleep deprived, exhausted wrecks sheltering from the storm on a near vertical slope next to Pen-Y-Fan summit waiting for sunrise
1/2s f2.0 ISO 800

2) Relieved to be back down out of the worst of the weather.

3) After a Full Welsh Breakfast in Brecon the sun finally appeared

4) Brecon Canal - I ran to take this, 20 seconds later the light was gone

5) Leaves on the Canal

6) Stormy light at the reservoir

More coming in a mo....

7) Willbaroo finds something he likes

8) Stream lined with fallen leaves

9) The first of many waterfalls we visited

10) The main waterfall - deeply impressive and I don't feel this has done it justice

11) Us at the stream and falls - what a fantastic location - so many subject it was like being a kid in a sweetie shop

12) Tree growing across one of the falls - it intrigued me

That's my photos!
I'm looking forward to seeing what everybody else took.
It was a superb day out - thanks to Steve and Mark for hosting us.

Looking at that sky I'd almost believe that Sunday was a beautiful day!

Well done to all of you on braving the weather to get those shots. The waterfalls look absolutely incredible.

 

[willbaroo]

Fantastic shots from both! The water fall ones are immense! Will upload mind either later on tonight or tomorrow evening..

Great effort in getting up the hill more so complete admiration for doing it in such crap weather. What are the colours like at Talybont? From your shots they look pretty good.

Found your flickr site, Funky, some dodgy character in number 99

I enjoyed Sunday, first proper photo trip.

I think we have a good set of images, especially with the poor start.

Thats far too clever finding those! The images just look fake and oversharpened but seemed fine on my monitor before I uploaded to Flikr - so I will try to redo over the weekend.

I really struggled to find good pics as lots of pics were out of focus or the noise was just making them look rubbish or wierdly when there was sun I've completely blown out the sky so the pics don't meet my quality standards!!!!
I've got a really cool one of raindrops on the water that I might post and see if its rescuable!

Enjoyed looking at these and following this thread.
Don't think I could of managed the climb but the water ones look really impressive, will try and get over there in the Spring.

Some lovely shots of my old stomping ground there.

Are the reservoir shots Talybont or the ones on the 470?

 

[Forbiddenbiker]

Enjoying this thread guys.

Any chance someone could name the people in the second shot... just nice to put faces (even distance ones, lol.) to names.

Yes, they are of Talybont Reservoir.
Also Brecon canal and the waterfalls are on the feed river for Talybont...
