A mate and I organised a trip to, yet again, climb Snowdon, the highest mountain in England and Wales at 1085m. I arose at 05:00, grabbed my gear and headed out to the starting point where I knew I would have a good view of the summit. The forecast was good so I waited until the rising Sun illuminated the top. This photo was taken at 05:40. Feeling that I did the best I could I popped back to base (a nearby glamping pod) to wake my mate, breakfast and start the 10.5 mile hike at 06:30. For once it didn't rain, even had great views, quite unusual for Wales.

For this trip I went light and used my Nikon Z50 and 18-140mm lens with a CP filter. Some light editing of the raw file and was finished in a few mins. I like to keep editing to the absolute minimum.
