That is cool. I always loved reading about the kings of Wales. Almost Arthurian myth like now I suppose

We have such a great crop of pictures this month - Amazing stuff. I like so many of them. This last one has a neat convergence to it but it is the exposure that is so spot on IMO.

I think it is a safe bet that it is unlikely that WB will win this year, TBH I am going to find it hard to decide on which pic I like the best. so we might get a scatter gun effect on the voting.
