Criccieth

Isn't it wonderful when you find a place that really resonates with something inside you. I found this in Criccieth. Possibly because it was the first beach that I visited in this new phase of my life, but there is something so very atmospheric about walking along a gorgeous beach in the middle of winter with an imposing castle looking haughtily down on you. 

I have been back many times and it looks different each time. So much can change, the time of day, the season, the strength of the waves.

 

 

It is always worth revisiting as you will see something new every time you go back. In some way it feels like catching up with an old friend.

 

 

Lessons Learned: Don't discount somewhere just because you've been there before. Revisit with fresh eyes.

If you are going to walk the beach and photograph wild waves, wear your wellies.
