A Summer Solstice Photographic Adventure – Sunrise to Sunset on Anglesey
What could be better than a photographic adventure to celebrate the “Summer Solstice” – This full-day, Welshot event is the perfect way to experience the long days of summer. Starting at Penmon Lighthouse, we will capture the sun as it rises above the Great Orme which overlooks Llandudno, North Wales. You will learn how to take long exposure, experimenting with using various shutter speed to slow the movement of water, which will give the sea that ‘Milky – Blurry’ look. This photographic event is guaranteed to provide the photographer with a wide range of subjects and genres. From seascape to landscape photography, from architectural to nature and wildlife, from macro to close-up – this is a day for those who like to amble around with their camera.
Welshot Does… The “Longest Day” – A Photographic Adventure in North Wales circumnavigating the Island of Anglesey. Meeting at Penmon Lighthouse, in time to watch and capture the sunrise over the Llandudno Great Orme in your camera will be the start to our Welshot Does… The Longest Day photographic adventure for 2025. We will then proceed to visit numerous photographic locations, from South Stack Lighthouse to the historic Telford’s Bridge, from Church Island to Parys Mountain in Amwlch, from LLanddwyn Island to Menai Bridge and Beaumaris – This day will have it all for the outdoor photographer – so why not grab your camera and join us on this 19 hour photography adventure.
From Telford’s Menai Bridge to Robert Stephensons Britannia Bridge, which both connect the Island of Anglesey to the mainland of North Wales, these photogenic structures will both delight and reward the photographer. Starting from the Coed Cyrnol car park, we will be walking along the Belgium Promenade, stopping at Llandysilio Island (otherwise known as Church Island) to capture the Britannia Bridge in all her splendour, before heading towards, and underneath, the magnificent Telford’s Bridge.
As we walk up to, onto and over the Menai Bridge itself we will capture this historical structure from both sides and all angles in our cameras. If time permits, we can then make our way, by car, to the local lookout layby near to the A55 (and Britannia Bridge) so you can capture both bridges in all their glory.
