Buy photo prints, framed photographs and canvases of the beautiful North Wales scenery by local photographer Simon Kitchin

When the weather and light combine Mother nature can produce some just incredible moments and they’re special ones to spend time with the camera. This morning was forecast to be misty in the Snowdonia valleys so I couldn’t resist and early alarm call to arrive for sunrise. I certainly wasn’t disappointed with the views in the Nant Gwynant valley just breathtaking, I stayed above Llyn Gwynant for 45 minutes or so taking it all in as the wonderful mist floated and swirled above the lake and around the flanks of the mountains.

 I'm delighted to say the 2026 North Wales Calendars have now arrived so are available to buy on my website... just a single print run so no more once these have sold

Having seen the weather forecast predicting a misty morning in North wales I decided it was time I visited Llangollen again and the Panorama Walk with it's wonderful views of Castell Dinas Bran. I arrived nice and early hoping to catch some sunrise light, which at first didn't seem likely as the cloud cover was pretty heavy. Fortunately my patience paid off and a little after sunrise the sun broke through and lit up the misty looking Castell Dinas Bran beautifully. One of the best morning I've had with the camera around Llangollen for a good while. On the way home I called into Pontcysyllte Aqueduct on the Llangollen canal to take advantage of the lovely autumn light.

The Scottish landscape is such an awesome place for a photography trip and having just spent a week around Glencoe and Assynt in the North West Highlands I was totally blown away byt the experience. Whilst the weather in Scotland is a little infamous for being wild and unpredictable I had some major luck at times so managed to see much of the area in some beautiful light and capture some nice images.

I've now edited most of the photos I took on the Scotland trip so have a browse of my photography gallery to get an idea of just what amazing scenery Scotland has to offer.

One of my favourite photos from my recent trip to Assynt near Ullapool. I visited Elphin Bothy to capture a photo of the iconic Suilven mountain at sunrise which looked stunning with the autumn colours in full bloom. The bothy at Elphin wasn't actually a bothy at all, it was built to serve as a kennel for the beloved hunting dogs of the 1st Duke of Sutherland
