Title: Waterfall Llangollen
Post by: Summicron on September 09, 2008, 09:31:32 AM
You know that place in North Wales, they have that international music Eisteddfod every year, well they have a waterfall that cascades down a series of steps, that's where this was taken, O about half a second exposure at something like F16.

Ohhh, the River Dee?  I've stood on those rocks!  I've been to Llangollen so often over the years.  And climbed up Dinas Bran (http://www.castlewales.com/dinas.html) as well (Crow Castle) over looking the wonderful valley.

I'm glad you've got the names and pronunciations of these places, I'm hopless at remembering the correct place names and their correct spellings and often I just can't be bothered looking them up, I should do with a dictionary as I do with my concordance, keep it by the computer. Lovely place though, I remember being there not long after I came to know the Lord, it was a few days prior to Christmas and a male voice choit was practising Christmas carols in a hall somewhere in town, and the sound was drifting across the valley, beautiful.

It's such a beautiful area.  My first hill climb in the UK was up Dinas Bran.  I almost couldn't do it!  But there's no way I'd let me cousin know I was finding it difficult.  HAHAHA!

Such beautiful singing around there of various choirs of Welsh Miners.  Our family had cousins in Llay and Wrexham area all in the mines.
