Cardiff wanderings
It has been a while since I last made a trip to Cardiff. A relative was back home from University and he was telling me that it’s an ideal place to roam about with a camera. I took down his suggestions and he provided a couple of map pins also. I was curious and went to explore the city with an open mind… Driving to the city during the early hours of the morning, I started the day in Cardiff Bay. Rather unfortunately, I didn’t get the sunrise I was hoping for! Winter weather can be quite unpredictable at times. After exploring the surrounding area for a short while, I walked into the city and was fascinated with the quirky corridors and architecture. It was relatively quiet out on the streets of South Wales, which allowed me to take the time to frame a couple of different angles and change lenses with a sense of ease.
Taking both the 18-140mm and 10-20mm lenses, each spot seemed to require an adjustment of some sort to frame correctly. The mini-tripod helped with getting to a couple of low-angle shots to try some long-exposure shots also - some worked and some didn't. It usually requires a little trial and error when experimenting with light trails within the city...
