This is a costal town in central Wales. It was a long weekend and we had just ventured into Wales without a plan. We were a bit dissapointed with the weather on this day and the coastline around this place also seemed very bleak with black gravel shore sand instead of beaches and very few people. Luckily the weather improved later in the day and we found some good beach in Barmouth, not far from here.

This is my first attempt at black and white so please be as critical as you can be. I took this picture in colored mode but due to the subject and weather it came out very close to gray scale so I decided to convert it to B&W, I think it conveys the mood better.
