A couple of weeks back I posted a  photo from a late night steam running session which took place back in May 2020. The top photo on this post is taken half an hour later the same evening.

Snow in the Sun

Snow in the Sun

When I caught the sun on this patch of snow before it melted, I couldn’t resist another pic. It’s thawing fast now, but there are still patches around.

Snow on the Moel Rhos

Late night steam

Late night steam
