A fabulous image Peter, - excellent composition. The snow capped mountains provide a stunning backdrop for this lovely little train. It must be a joy to travel on this railway.

Thank you Carol

Your kind words are really appreciated. This mountain, Cnicht, is visible from all over Glaslyn estuary area, and on a clear day is a wonderful sight. (there are nice views from the top as well..

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve,

Your visit is most welcome. As you will probably remember from Pano, I had a whole stack of photos from this spot with different locos and different times of year. There are so many possibilities just by moving a few metres, and Cnicht is always there!

Best Wishes and a good week ahead

PS, did you spot the three geese in the sky?

Wonderful composition.

Thank you Jaap

I am pleased you have enjoyed it.

A marvellous backdrop Peter and a great picture ~ All the best ~ Nick

Thank you so much Nick,

Certainly one of my favourite places for photographing the Welsh Highland Railway. I think it is always nice if we can get Cnicht in somewhere too!

Best Wishes and a good week ahead

Hi Peter,

What a gorgeous scene! A magnificent backdrop in the slight mist! I could see this as a railway poster.

Best wishes, Rosa.

Thank you so much Rosa,

I really appreciate your visits and wonderful praise! I am glad you think it worthy of poster status! A few years ago the railway did use a (specially posed) picture taken from the opposite side of the track and a little further up the valley, again with Cnicht as the backdrop.
Having done railway promotional material before (see www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/43998458 and www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/43998456 ) they are very particular where they are taken from, for a numbe rof reasons).
Regardless, I am very happy that you like it!!

Best Wishes and a good week ahead

My Dear Füsun,

Thank you so much for your visit and these beautiful words. We had come to this exact spot on your first visit to Wales (twice!) and many times since. While this picture is maybe nice, the hyperlinked on above is special too!!! Then we can think about the conquering of Cnicht.. www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/43786300 That is something that will never be forgotten!!!!!!

Love Peter

One Snowdonia Mountain I haven't been up. A terrific shot!
Best wishes,
Andy

Thank you Andy,

You should give Cnicht a try. Here is the view from the top. www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/43786300

It was one of the first of your photos I commented on! I have added another comment to it!
I would love to re-discover the Hills of Snowdonia. Very unlikely now - a long way from Madrid (and from Cornwall, come to think of it!).
Best wishes,
Andy

Wow what a fabulous shot Peter!, like Andy I haven't yet been on this mountain,
my congratulations on this fine image

Thank you Roger,

I've been up a large number of times, then walk around past the abandoned slate mine www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/44029656 and down the other side of the valley.
I must dig out some more photos..

Best Wishes
Peter
