The low winter sun cast some big shadows (inland, the morning’s frost hadn’t melted at all in many places). A shortish walk from Mwnt following the rugged coastline, with its old slate quarries and views of Cardigan Island, then back inland along quiet roads and field paths.

Photo of a view along a rugged cliff coastline. The sun highlights tussocks of grass on the cliff top, and Cardigan Island just offshore is bathed in the golden light. The dark grey rock of the cliffs is darker still in the shadows, though the rock nearest the camera is speckled white. The sea is agitated and milky grey after recent storms, waves crashing white against the foot of the cliffs. In contrast, the sky is a clear blue with a bank of white cloud over the sea on the horizon.
Photo taken from a cliff top overlooking a deep, craggy cove that is dark in shadow. My shadow, as I stand on the cliff top path, appears on the sheer cliff face on the far side of the cove. Waves break against the jagged rocks that reach out from the base of the cliff into a milky grey-blue sea. A bank of white cloud on the horizon in an otherwise blue sky.
Landscape photo of a steep valley through which a stream tumbles down to the sea off to the left. A coastal footpath zigzags down to a wooden footbridge in the bottom left of the frame then back up the other side. The sun just peeks over the brow of the hill, lighting up the rugged top of the valley side on the left and throwing all else into muted shadow colours. The sky is clear blue, the bank of clouds approaching from behind the camera.
A landscape photo of a view across a bright green cliff top field and over a sandy beach towards a hilly headland that looks golden-brown in the afternoon sun. Just to the right of and hunkered below the summit of the headland you might make out a small white church (from an earlier post). In the foreground, the sun casts long shadows over the grass, including mine - long shadow legs almost indistinguishable from fence posts! The sky is still blue to the right (west) but those clouds have caught up with me and in a moment will sweep across.
