A Dark Day at Lake Vyrnwy

I went to Lake Vyrnwy today. I tried to take pictures of some birds there from the bird hide but the day was so very dark that I really needed a tripod because of the slow shutter speeds. I didn't have one but managed to salvage one bird pic. It's a Chaffinch.
We've had lots and lots of rain here recently and I photographed the water coming from the dam (which was built in about 1880 I think). It's still raining as I type this four hours later actually and more is forecast for tonight and tomorrow. It was by general opinion a 'miserable' day with rain, wind and a chilly 5c (41f), but as I may have mentioned previously I have a bit of a soft spot for the so called 'poor' weather - although when you don't see the sun sometimes for weeks on end it can get a smidge depressing!

Oh maybe depressing, but beautiful at the same time.
The pictures are just specatacular, I have similar ones of a dam close by, it's awesome to hear that much water rushing by.
Thanks for sharing your pictures, I so enjoy them.

Thank you for showing a beautiful view.

The weather conditions have given the photos a lovely atmospheric look.

You have caught the mood nicely, though I suspect we will all have had plenty of practise before spring.

We've certainly had our share of rain recently Jim. Love that shot of the dam.
