Last weekend I went with a student of mine to Snowdonia to do some landscape photography and give hime some time to learn and get to grips with a few things. We parked at Ogwen Cottage and walked up to the shores of Llyn Idwal which sits at the bottom of The Devil’s Kitchen and is surrounded by the steep slopes and cliffs that rise to Y Garn and Glydder Fawr. It was a dull day with low cloud cover but we could see that on the higher reaches the waterfalls were all frozen solid, whilst round the lake there was no snow and it was really quite mild.
I hope you enjoy the pictures.
This first picture was taken on the foot bridge that crosses the brook about 100 yards from the car park at the start of the walk up to Llyn Idwal.
Just as I was about to take this picture, a hiker walked into the scene. I waited till he was wholly visible and then took the picture.
The last picture here is taken at the far end of Llyn Idwal, before the climb up the Devil’s Kitchen, looking back across the lake to Pen yr Ole Wen in the clouds.
