After a summer of Snowdonia photography workshops in sometimes often too bright sunshine, Snowdonia showed her true colours on Monday, with non-stop rain all day. Although we had to keep to tree cover for most of the day, the water on the leaves and gushing down mountain streams gave us plenty to work with.
The weather being what it is in the mountainous areas of Wales, having too much sunshine is a problem we rarely face on workshops. Yesterday, the strong August sun was a real challenge. We managed to pull out a set of vibrant ‘postcard’ shots, but the strong light really had us thinking hard about exposure and the limited dynamic range of our cameras. A nice luxury to have!
