Yeh biking and photography go together so well and encourage/enhance each other.

I used to carry around a proper camera with me on the bike, but purely rely on my phone now, making it even easier.

I got a little drone too recently and find myself chucking it in my bag when I go out on the bike now too. Why not? It's so small and light it's unnoticeable.

Nice shots. I still haven't tried taking pictures with my drone, only video so far.

I shoot both but my first love will always be stills. It just gives you a different perspective on a scene and gets you to places that you might not be able to reach. I recently shot photos of lord hill on his column in Shrewsbury. I'd like to do the same with Nelson in London but I'd probably get arrested.

A few pictures from the wet ride up to my mate's place yesterday. All taken on my Canon Powershot, the panoramas stitched together using MS Image Composite Editor and then all resized using Paint.net.

Old chapel which seems to be unused these days.

The view from the first gate looking south.

The view from the track to my friends house. The goat track snaking off up the hill is where I went on the way back. It eventually comes out on the A470 a few miles north of the (now closed) Coed y Brenin visitor centre.

Wind farm exploring. These things are so cool close up

Great pics and video Darren. Someone else with a liking for riding inappropriate bikes on goat tracks I see.

An afternoon out riding some of my favourite roads today. Grey and mirky here in Llanfyllin but as soon as I rode over Bwlch Oerddrws
the weather changed.

The view from Davy Jones Locker in y Bermo. The panoramic view on my phone went a bit squiffy.

A couple of pictures from the A493 between Fairbourne and Llwyngwril

Looks nice Gary.

Yeh, as long as it isn't wet and muddy I don't see why any bike can't ride tracks like that. Plenty of grip from road tyres.

A few pictures from yesterday.

Coffee and a view from Davy Jones Locker in a very windy Abermaw.

Lots of bikes there...

Including this interesting looking, home-brewed job based around an XJ550 lump.

My usual stop at the viewpoint on the way to Aberdyfi

Aberdyfi for the view across the estuary

And chips before heading home.

That white bike is very odd.

garynortheast · 08-04-26, 06:47 PM

I like the quirkiness of it. Never seen anything like it before. It's also quite tiny.

[in best Homer J Simpson voice] Mmmmmmm..... chips.
