		<title>Bracelet Bay</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend, I took the family to Bracelet Bay to have a play on the beach &#8211; it was absolutely freezing and, contrary to the Met Office forecast who said clear skies, it was rather cloudy. However, the sky look stunning especially for mid-morning. I had my camera with me, of course, and took a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Weather Forecasts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a photographer, I need to have a good idea of what the weather will be like tomorrow or even over the next few hours. The Met Office are the government funded weather forecaster, so it would seem sensible to use them. However, I&#8217;ve noticed on several occasions that I check the weather at 6am [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mynydd Illtud at Night</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I first shot some star trails, the interest was negligible. After a year or so, people started to take an interest and my one photo of star trails in the Brecon Beacons started to sell really well. To get the more effective star trails, the moon mustn&#8217;t be in the sky so there are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pen y Fan Massif</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the forecast saying valley mist, I decided to walk to the ridge by Corn Du for sunrise. I started walking from the Storey Arms at 6:30am and arrived on the ridge at 7:30am. Sunrise itself wasn&#8217;t anything special, but I stayed on the ridge for 2.5 hours to see how the weather would pan [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Visit to the Beach &#8211; at 886m Above Sea Level</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I went for a walk to the summit of Pen y Fan this morning (it was in thick cloud despite the weather forecast, but that&#8217;s another story). I could some sunrise colour just after I started up the hill, which I duly photographed: I had seen the summits were in cloud already, but decided to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nadolig Llawen and a Happy New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This will, most probably, be my last blog post of 2011 so it&#8217;s time to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This year has been very successful for me and I&#8217;ve managed to expand my photography business despite the gloomy economic outlook, although if the news articles are anything to [...]]]></description>

		<title>A quick trip to the Brecons</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This time of year is always my busiest, with exhibitions and craft fairs, etc. so I don&#8217;t often get to go out as much as I&#8217;d like. But with snow in the air, I took a morning to go out to the Brecons &#8211; mainly to try out my winter tyres in the snow! I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nash Point Micro Landscapes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My parents are visiting for a few days and, as seems to be the case all too often, the weather isn&#8217;t very nice. We decided to take a trip to Nash Point on the Glamorgan Heritage Coast as I&#8217;ve only been there once and my parents haven&#8217;t been there at all &#8211; and this time, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Usk Reservoir</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Day 2 of my car being serviced and repaired at the garage so I borrowed my wife&#8217;s car and drove out to the hills west of Usk Reservoir. On my way to the slight hill overlooking the reservoir, a rather old and gnarled fence post caught me eye. As a slight aside, it may interest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stormy Brecons</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having been out of action for a week or so with a mild chest infection, I decided it was high time I went out to the Brecons. The forecast was for heavy rain showers in the morning and clearing from midday with snow on the peaks. Perfect as I wanted to get a stormy shot [...]]]></description>
