Aberystwyth in the golden hour, drone photos. #Aberystwyth #Drone #Photography #Wales #DronePhotography
@NickF mmm lovely hillfort goodness
@thesweetcheat I will post some drone photos of that next week! In the meantime: https://youtu.be/6yaxO3hJVKY?si=ZMdVFXkht8asNu_3
@NickF great footage! It's a fine fort, we've only visited properly twice but it's always a nice landmark from Aber and other places. We saw it from the superbly situated hillfort at Castell Bwa Drain above the Rheidol valley last year (Pen Dinas centre right skyline)

@thesweetcheat I've only done Pen Dinas in the area, my eldest daughter lives in Aber. I must do more adventures in the area, you've just inspired me!
@NickF there's a terrific book about Ceredigion hillforts by the lovely Dr Toby Driver. He's someone I really so miss from the bird site. I found out this week he's also published another one on Welsh hillforts generally which I will have to get.

@thesweetcheat Oh that's going to be hard to resist!
@NickF Pen Dinas looks massive!!!
@_bydbach_ It is a big one!
@NickF I know. But under some weather conditions it seems bigger than usual.
@_bydbach_ It does in that photo, the light I guess.
