Took a trip to the Welsh Pembrokeshire Coast, and visited various places in and around the area. Experienced some rather bleah weather and bad luck, but tried to make the most of it. Didn't quite shoot as much as I wanted to though! However, there were some super rugged landscapes in their natural form (no safety railings or anything), and some amazing cliffs and seascapes. There was also no cell phone reception most of the time, and it was really cut off from the world.

There are many castles - Pembroke Castle is just one of them. Also, in terms of "main" town... I think Haverfordwest would definitely qualify more than Pembroke!

I was there for a week :)
 

Beautiful place, thank you for sharing.
 

#4 Tenby Lifeboat Stations - the old one in front, which has since been bought and converted into a residential home, and the new one behind.

The sea looks nice and calm here, but long exposures are deceiving... I almost got soaked shooting this photograph, the winter sea was very rough and the waves were that high.

Lovely pictures of the coast :) I was at Abereiddy Bay for a morning of coasteering but did not explore the rest of Pembrokeshire unfortunately as we had to drive back to return the rental car. You're making me feel like taking another trip back.

Ah thanks! I actually didn't visit Abereiddy - mostly concentrated on the area around St. David's and then further south. It's a very nice place - but definitely don't go in winter. The winds are very strong, and actually they just experienced a rather bad bout of flooding, so many of the places I visited and shot at are now damaged or impassable :(

Cool D600. Thanks for sharing. Your dynamic range is impressive. Brings everything out without over doing it. haha . GOOD!
 

#9 The Green Bridge of Wales
It's a natural limestone arch located inside Castlemartin Range - but accessible to the public as long as they're not conducting live firing!

Very nice photos of Wales. Great composure and control of exposure to create the feel, especially the seascape ones.

Looking forward to more :thumbsup:

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the photos :) There aren't that many as I experienced some very bad weather during the trip, and also some rather bad luck, but I think I have a couple more pics. Stay tuned!
