A day spent in the lovely town of Aberystwyth, at the University Open Day - afterwards, Finn and I spent a sun-filled hour on the sea-front discussing the pros and cons of university life in deepest, darkest (but absolutely beautiful) Wales

Timeless. Sitting, waiting, watching...but what is that to her left? Looks like a knee, a leg and a foot. Whose? I think we should be told.

A lovely place and a good place to converse. Love the light and the composition. Just beautiful!

This shot is simply special. Best way to describe it.
Think its the few colours along with the womans top being sky blue also the curve attacting the eye inwards.
Great work.

Lovely composition and seaside colours.

The social life doesn't look up to much! But you have got Cader Idris - super mountain just north, and some fantastic castles. I must stop looking at every place for its photo opportunities, and yes the uni is really good!

Very other-worldly light falling on this little bit of history (the shelter thingy that is, not the lady ;o))

Interesting and evocative photo ... wistful and melancholy in a way ... excellent ... v

A striking composition Doug. The perspective and framing are really nice, as is the lighting. An almost surreal atmosphere. In my opinion, one of your best. "V"

What a beautiful image Doug! I can smell the salt air from here! :)

Its great the way the lights catching this, the old dear soaking up the autumn sun makes the shot even better
