Brecon Beacons

Tuesday, May 14, 2013

I took this picture on a walk I did at the end of August 2010. I had just returned from a walking trip in the Alps. The three "peaks" are Corn Du. Pen y Fan and Cribin.

I find it difficult to get any enthusiasm to go for a walk in the Brecon Beacons. It's the weather maybe. More likely the grassy slopes and mono-culture plantation forestry. I find it all a bit depressing.

I haven't been back there since.

Below is one taken in Switzerland (near Lugano) in 2009. It's of the Finsteraarhorn - the highest peak in the Bernese Oberland. It's some 60 miles distant in this photo.

I could see the Finsteraarhorn from my bedroom window in Oberlindach when I lived there, but of course then I was looking at it from the North.
