'Swimmers in Water Colours' Traeth Bychan

60mph winds, torrential rain, heavy, dark skies. After a brilliant day rock climbing (indoors) I desperately needed a cool swim in the sea. I headed for the N E coast of Anglesey to find some shelter and calmer waters. I swam in the rain but shortly afterwards, as I stood there shivering even under my Dry Robe, the most beautiful pulses of sunset illuminated patches of the leaden sky above. As I was about to leave a local Welsh family arrived and swam under the wonderful colours of the dusk sky. I took a photo of them swimming and then some portraits of the whole family on the beach. What a lovely finish to the day.
