Dry grasses bent over; a scatter of brown and yellow leaves.
Looking down a hill Into what appears to be mist
The mountains in the background, and a yellow Labrador in the foreground with two balls in her mouth (she could manage three - what a skill).
Patches of light on hills and water, grey clouds breaking up This is 3/10 of my alt txt test. If nobody responds by saying they’ve read it, I’m going to stop writing alt txt. Detailed descriptions are pointless if nobody is actually reading them.
What it says on the post, but add bright sunshine. If you’re reading the alt txt please let me know. I’ve no indication that it’s worth it.
Sunset mountains, sunset dunes. Is anyone reading the Alt Txt? Please let me know if you are.
Blue sky, bright sun and an empty beach
A track leading beside a stone wall, heading towards a rounded hill. Blue sky, sunshine.
A bright yellow double daffodil in sunshine
Lots of blues: blue sky, blue sea, blue train going over the bridge
Sunshine on the beach; silent rock pools reflecting the light, sea like a mirror.
Trees and the partly collapsed dolmen in mist
A crescent moon in a late-sunset sky. The horizon - just visible between trees and a roof silhouette - has a deep purple blue sea meeting orange-tinged clouds
Looking inland from the boardwalk over the dunes - a purple mountain rises into the blue sky
Pale blue sky, the symmetrical triangle of the mountain almost purple on colour. In the foreground, a line of dunes and golden sand, and even nearer a strip of sea
Blue sky, a curve of cloud which follows the curve of the bay. Empty beach.
Bright, bright sun; deep blue sky, green trees and grass in the lane which runs between stone walls (one clear, the other overgrown)
Sunset sky, blue sea, golden light on the slipway leading onto the golden sand
Low tide, estuary sand exposed, bright sun. All framed by gnarled tree trunks and leaves.
A deep orange sunset, mountains across the bay.
A flat pathway (old railbed) alongside the estuary; green hills rising above; bright sunlight
A cartoon Welsh dragon hanging onto a bending lamppost in the teeth of a howling gale
A patch of grass in bright sunlight, with clunks of bright white snowdrops
Snow on the mountains, but not on the sunny foreground.
A long wooden bridge over the estuary at low tide. Green hills in the background; bright sunshine
Two fake horse skulls on poles with ribbon decoration. Really.
Snowy lane, sheltered by trees; the open field is full of snow and it has gathered on the top of the dry stone wall. Bright sun, though
Chilly grey estuary at low tide, chilly grey mountain in the background, chilly grey sky above.
A snowy slope, pitted with footprints which lead towards trees, golden brown in the sunlight. The sky is bright blue.
Sunset over Llyn Tegid. The sky and the lake are shades of apricot; the retreating lines of wooded shore and mountains are dark indigo to pale lavender as they get further away
A violet-blue sky, darkening enough to make the crescent moon clear and bright. Silhouettes of trees.
The grey bulk of Castell Harlech in the snow. A person is walking carefully over the snow-covered bridge towards the camera.
Three sheep standing on a snowy dry stone wall, beneath winter trees
An almost circular copse of trees on a rise of ground; snow on the ground d and on the hills in the background, but the trees are bare
Sky deep blue at the top, deep orange-apricot at the bottom and right. The water in the estuary looks like mercury in the light.
A woodland path beside a stream; sunlight patching through the trees reaching high over the path
Sun on sand, many many footprints. Still blue sea reflecting the blue sky. A cottage on the edge of the dunes (even its owner doesn’t give that house long).
Sky paling with the sunset; mature trees silhouetted against it. The multicoloured buildings of the village are subdued by the light, and are reflected in the turquoise pool.
A green path cleared between stands of bracken, hawthorn trees in full leaf, bright sunshine. Sigh
The text says it. Winter sunlight, bare hawthorns too.
Stone wall, leafless trees behind it blurring into mist
An amazing sky, deep orange-peach with violet above and a flash of blue below. Tree branches black in silhouette against this, and the corner of a Welsh cottage
A dip in the dunes; sky still light but tinged with late sunset; a small fire burning bright.
Mist blurring the monumental walls of a mediaeval castle, a signpost and an evergreen tree
Evening, grey sky, grey sea, lampstands lit. What it says on the main text
A patchwork of sloping fields, white patterned with the dark lines of fences and hedges and bare winter trees. In the distance, the white mountains
A rough, round enclosure in golden autumn sunlight. The entrance dip is framed by two gnarled hawthorns.
Mist and a burial chamber - the giant capstone still high at one end, but angled down to the ground at the other. Bushes and ancient leafless hawthorns blurring in the fog.
A blue sky, with a bright sun only just filtered by clouds lower towards the horizon. A silver snake of the river running out to the sea.
Grey, cold sea, waves with lots of foam, some of which is being blown back by the wind.
A path under trees, bright green with new leaves. Sunlight filters through to the bluebell-covered ground.
Snowy mountains seen from a chilly moor. Sunny, but maybe not for long.
Mountains - snowy - above the estuary. The pointy one is Yr Wyddfa / Snowdon
A pub terrace, white wrought iron seats and table in the filtered shade of trees. It looks out over the wooden bridge at Penmaenpwll; green hills on the far side of the sunlit estuary.
Looking down over fields and across the bay to the mountains on the far side. Everything is green and lush (apart from a dry stone wall); the sea is blue and sunshine bathes the landscape
A sheep in sunlight, against browned bracken, clearly baaaaaaing loudly
One sheep, looking straight at the camera, in front of gorse bushes with an autumnal landscape of hills and fields and trees in the background
Snow on a path (and wall) leading to an outbuilding with a door painted in aqua blue. All the shrubs and bushes are blurred by the snow.
Sunset on the beach, empty of all but a few birds by the shoreline. The sky is shades of lemon yellow and the mountains across the bay look very close.
