Llyn Brianne

Llyn Brianne, Carmarthenshire, Wales

6.48 KM

We set out on this walk to Lyn Brianne reservoir on a freezing March day, whilst I was in recovery from illness. It was tough going, but good to get out on the hills nonetheless. For the curious; the black and white images are shot on Kodak T-MAX 100 film on a Nikon FE2 35mm camera.
