Above Port Eynon Point, Gower, Wales. View location
I first encountered these at the top of a scramble up onto the "top" above Port Eynon Point.
The conditions for photography were difficult (wind) - and much better locations were found later. I was glad I did persevere here though as there were relatively more of the colour variants such as this. |
