Black and White Landscapes!

Went over to North Wales for the weekend and decided to go up Mt. Snowden as I haven't been up there since I was at college. Unfortunately weather was a real washout so I just took the G1X up there. Still managed to get a couple of images that I like in black and white; both of them stitches, the first three frame and the second six. I would have taken the M3, but the 18-55 kit lens was so badly de-centred the whole thing had to go back as I bought it as a "kit". Needless to say replacement hadn't arrived in time....

The M3 takes away all the frustration I have in trying to use the G1X :)

I should add that I add film grain to these.

Never been to Wales, but it appears to be full of photographic opportunity. Nice pics! :)

Thanks dpc, the best of a very overcast weekend. Definitely worth visiting the Snowdonia national park if you come to the UK, but the mountains are pretty tame compared with what you have in Canada.

We had more weather than normal today (which says a lot!!). Extremely black clouds came rolling in and we were in an on and off flooding from above. This is shot from the porch of my mountain cabin. Fantastic place :)
