Pembroke Coast

gubbs · March 28, 2005

Hi,
I've been away for a couple of days for Easter. We stayed in a B&B on a farm situated on the West Coast of Wales. First afternoon we has some lunch in Littlehaven and then walked up the beach to Broadhaven here's a couple of pics from the afternoon

As you can see the weather was pretty changeable

. Anyway we then went to check in to the B&B, the girls all wanted to shower so I shot down to Marloes to prepare for a sunrise vist in the morning...stunning coastline

Hi gubbs. I like these two best. The patterns in the sand are neat, and water
hitting rocks is always a good shot.

Gubbs
Very nice as always

Beautiful coastline

In this shot (very nice) what is the guy on the right doing on the beach with the machine?

It almost looks like he's tilling up the beach

Thanks
Fred

Aw, this one's easily my favorite! Sweetlight on her, charming smile, nicely set up, good bokeh.

Having seen you and Luben do the coast, I really wonder what that rocky shore shot would look like with a gradiant filter? I bet it would er, um... well you know, rock.

That one is my favorite, too. Looks like a great trip. Was there a morning sunrise shot?

I was drawn to this thread immediately, because of the name Pembroke. As you might have forgotten, no recent photos posted, I have two Pembroke Welsh Corgis. Have they all migrated to England and the Queen's quarters, or are there still some in Wales?

Also, my grandmother, my father's mother came from Wales. She would never tell anyone. All of us who knew thought it was quite a wonderful sounding place to be from.

Really good photos! Thanks,
ginger

Thanks Sid,

I have a new tecnique with my models: grab them by the scruff of the neck and then tickle them until they agree to pose!

Thanks ginge!

Got some dawn (and a few others) shots to come once I've done the post.

Actually saw a couple of Corgis lounging around in the sun, I thought of you

My Mum lives in west Wales, it's a stunning place and not too many people, Yet! Shame it's a 4 hour drive away!
