Wales teams with stunning scenery and rich history. I’m castle crazy, so I’m drawn to the immense forts built by King Edward I along the north coast of the country. I could spend days exploring the giant stone buildings once used to keep the land safe.

    Mr Sawchuk your images are just breathtaking. I’ve looked through some of your other albums but these of Wales just an intense longing to be there. Supurb use of the sunsets natural lighting and late afternoon shadows to bring a depth to each landscape. I have hopes to soon travel to the UK and your images are a wonderful inspiration for locations to see.
