Nature's Playground

This was taken from Capel Curig in North Wales. Although it was early morning the more intrepid were already out on the Lake, ruffling the otherwise still surface of the lake with their boating activity. It was very serene with only the sound of the paddles occasionally hitting the sides of the kayaks. The imposing Snowdon in the background. Snowdonia National Park

    I agree with nemirna, and it would be quite a move for me as well, haha. Excellent capture of a gorgeous landscape.

  • geraint replied

    Thanks richie, its been that familiar to me over the past few weeks I’ve started dreaming that I’m there but have forgotten my camera. I think its called the red bubble bug

    I love the kayaks and how they just stir up the water a little bit. I think this enhances the reflection.

  • geraint replied

    Thanks desimages, I liked the movement of the wakes too.

    Imposing and serene sight.Very beautiful Geraint.Again you rose early:
    “Early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise” so you know what to expect (if it is not yet done!!)

  • geraint replied

    Thanks Gilberte. Unfortunately on this occasion I think early to rise has given me the flu, as far as wealthy and wise I’ll probably be expecting for some time. GXX

  • Gilberte

    Gilberte

    Hi Ger..sorry to hear you have got the flu.I think it’s a world epidemy; I heard there’s a bad flu in America and here it is also like an epidemy;Dominique has got it; he is at home instead of in Bulgary giving a training.
    You may be expecting wealth but wisdom you got already . GXX it’s not contagious!!!

  • geraint

    geraint

    Thanks again Gilberte, hope Dominique is better and that you’re giving him my portion of the soup. GXX

    What’s all this talk of soup! Fantastic shot matey, grace any Poucher cover.

  • geraint replied

    Because i’ve got the flu Gilberte has kindly offered to make me some soup all the way from Gwlad Belg.

    Oh .. I must come back to Wales … I love the mountains, the way they are so jagged and barren. And the water so smooth as silk and such a lovely shade of blue. Nature at its best.

  • geraint replied

    Beautiful comment and compliment. Thank you very much:))

    Haven’t been there for years. Makes me yearn for the fresh air and hills!

  • geraint replied

    Thanks Avocet. I don’t think I could live anywhere else even though I’m sure there are many as equally beautiful and more beautiful places in the world.

    Beautiful, the water looks like glass in the foreground then you have the starkness of the red, and behind that you have the softness created by the distance of the mountains. Magical capture.

    Extremely beautiful! Stunning image. The persons in the water are great because they give a feeling for the dimensions of the place
