Images of Wales

This feature is updated regularly with photographs of Welsh scenes. The pictures are selected from my growing collection of previously unpublished images. I occasionally feature pictures kindly supplied by guest photographers, but most of the photos are my own, either scanned from colour slides or prints, or shot with a digital camera. From Oct 1997 to Nov 1999 I used an Agfa ePhoto307 digital camera; from Nov 1999 to Jul 2002 a Sony Mavica MVC-FD91 and Olympus C-920Z; from Aug 2002 to May 2006 a Fuji FinePix S602 Zoom.
Since May 2006 I have been using a Nikon D50 digital SLR.
