Aberdaron
A selection of pebbles, all found within a couple of metres of each other. The variety of stones on the beach is fascinating. And I left them all on the sands. Grownup me knows that taking away pebbles from the beach is a bad idea.

Fireball in the Sky
I was lucky enough to capture a super bright fireball meteor over the northwest coast of Wales last week on Monday 28th October at 18:55hrs. This fireball was widely witnessed across the country, including over in Ireland. I was one of very few people to capture it on camera as I was setting up a shot of the Milky Way with myself in the frame. The fireball was captured over two frames, so I stacked the two, and cleaned up my outline for this final image.

The other photos have been geo-tagged as on or around the summit. For less busy mountains, it can be a little hit and miss.
