A view south from Dyffryn Ardudwy Station. There are several lengths of straight track along this section of line which was driven along the coastal plain. It is not totally flat however, as seen here, slightly exaggerated by a telephoto view. The level crossing in view just before the line curves is at Llanddwywe, about 1 kilometre distant.

The gravel banks in the Afon Ystwyth at Grogwynion are rich in heavy metals due to past mining activity on the adjacent hillsides. This prevents many plant species which would normally populate such areas from getting hold here. One of the plant species that thrives here is this broadleaved sedge. The individual leaves are about 10-12mm across.

Sunset over a frosty Arran. Those with an imagination might say the rocks on the left are the head!

From left to right Turbine Nos 23,20,12 and 8 are seen here in full flight despite the freezing weather conditions.
The project finally became fully operational in December 2008 after a few teething problems over the previous couple of months.
Construction of the wind turbines began back in November 2007 at Turbine No 16.
By June 2008 engineers had constructed 26 wind turbine towers and installed 78 turbine blades 450 metres above sea level on Scout Moor amid adverse weather conditions of thick fog,gale force winds,torrential rain,snow and ice during the winter months of 2008.

Following a public inquiry held in 2004, planning consent was granted by the Secretary of State on the 25th May 2005 for the building of Scout Moor Wind Farm.
On the 25th of September 2008 dignitaries from across the North West were invited to the official opening of the Scout Moor wind farm.
Children from Edenfield Primary School, who have enjoyed lessons based around the wind farm, were on hand to cut the ribbon at Turbine No 22.Link
Head Teacher at Edenfield Primary School, Janet Reidy, said: "It was superb for the children to be involved after all the work they had done about the wind farm in their lessons.
I think they will all remember this in future years and now they know what it's like to be film stars with all the camera crews there!"
Richard Dibley, wind power development manager at Peel, said at the opening: "We have welcomed people here today to thank them for their patience and understanding during the construction period and for them to see the wind farm in action at close quarters. I think we have chosen the perfect site here as it is more than 50% windier up here than it is in the surrounding area. These turbines will be generating power for years to come using a natural resource that will never run out."

These sheep are part of the Hebridean flock that graze the St Catherine's Hill nature reserve. Before the M3 extension south to Southampton the space between the photographer and the fence behind the sheep was a busy main road. The winter morning sun has yet to climb above the hill and melt the frost on the ground and the sheep's fleeces.

The presence of a place name, some old dykes and a fank suggest that there may have been a settlement at Tom a' Chromain. The old 6" maps just show the fank and place name, so it would have gone by 1840.
Strath nan Lùb is now forested and there are a few ways through the trees, this being the largest gap, allowing easy (when there is not deep snow) access to the Creag Tharsuinn ridge.
