Oak leaf with water droplets

Another wet-weather woody walk, Snowdonia – November | 雨の林散歩

The weather forecast was poor again. Starting late, we started walking from a car park up a steep single track road near Betws-y-Coed (in Snowdonia, Wales), looking at the map and deciding to look around the disused mine at Hafna.

I was really getting into photogrphing the lichen I was coming across, making our progress very slow, but it was a perfect day for taking in all the colours and going to see a waterfall (we drove a little way for the waterfall).
