It's been a beautiful day, so after shopping in Dolgellau we headed towards Ganllwyd for a spot of research and photography. I love autumn when the dying embers of summer manage to warm, trees and bushes laden with fruit and berries and the sense of nature readying itself for the harshness of winter. Here's all this with the beauty of southern Snowdonia and a hint of the Ganllwyd Tramway's course in the bushes to the right of the road.
Pressing on further to the stretch under consideration for my model, I spent some time scrambling round this bridge trying to get a reasonable photo. The lush trees and undergrowth meant that there was only one viable angle, leading to a scramble over a wall and carefully picking my way through some scrub. Originally both road and rail shared the bridge, though the road was more of a track than metalled highway, today only the road remains.
