Hello folks.
Another figure in the landscape image you might say but this one tells a story. The figure is myself (a timed self portrait) and the place is Y Llethr in the wonderful Rhinogydd mountains of Snowdonia.
Almost five years ago I was stood in this exact spot when I recieved a phone call from my then finace telling me that we were finished and when I returned to Northamptonshire I would have to leave. I was, as you might imagine, utterly distraught but decided there and then that I would quit my job and move to Snowdonia as soon as possible.
Four days later I arrived in Capel Curig with no job, nowhere to live and next to no money. Somehow, I turned this rather rash action into a success story and five years on things have turned out incredibly well for me and my photographic career.
I still miss my ex and think of her often, returning to this very poignant place once or twice a year to think about how my new life in Snowdonia started, how far I've come and how far I still have to go.
Thanks for looking
