"A place of peace in rural #Wales " There is a certain beauty to churches, not the huge gothic cathedrals, which are beautiful in a different way. Magnificent architecture, grand statements of the power and wealth of the religion which commissioned their building. Small secluded, rural churches such as this; old, almost relics of an old religion are a different kind of statement. They serve close knit rural communities, where parishioners attend weekly services and several generations of local families are laid to rest in communal cemeteries. Though the weekly service may not be as well attended in recent times, they remain integral to the village societies they serve. I came across this lovely church building and cemetary in the village of #crymych having only crossed the border from #carmarthenshire into #pembrokeshire its appeal was instant. The dark, brooding sky providing a spectacular and dramatic backdrop, while the gravestones demonstrate the significance of the church to the community. After parking my bike, I spent an hour exploring the village, including enjoying some soup in the local cafe. A reasonably large village, with tourist information, a leisure centre, school, supermarket and several takeaway restaurants. It was turning out time at the school, children walking to nearby homes, parents collecting their kids in a small fleet of cars. Still others boarded buses at the station near to the school, to be transported to their homes in surrounding villages. A small slice of rural life, of which the churches, like this remain beautiful symbols of community. #letitbelegendary #findyourepic TIP: Churches make good photographic subjects, dark skies can be dramatic even spectacular. Combining the two, and making use of minimal vignetting during editing can further emphasise the feeling of drama. Careful use will highlight the subject, almost framing it, without detracting from the natural look of the image. To see more #travelphotography follow the link in my bio (at Crymych)

The soul-nurturing power of a windhover in the hills

The Golden Road – an ancient ridgeway from Crymych to the Gwaun valley – faded into distant dove-grey, slipped across low ridges that terminate in successive fine headlands along the north Pembrokeshire coast. I offered prayers of thanksgiving to the Reverend Parri Roberts and the poet Waldo Williams, who successfully resisted postwar military designs on 16,000 acres of this prime landscape for more of the training areas that blight so much of Britain.

Crymych man invents new hybrid sport - "Basket Rugby"

A PE teacher from Crymych has left his job to promote his own newly invented sport; a game which combines Rugby Union and Basketball.

Gareth John believes that "Basket Rugby" will one day be played at the Olympics.

"I was about to take the second year boys out to play rugby..." Gareth told Pembrokeshire News, "...when I remembered it was minus temperatures, gale force winds and heavy snow outside. Now usually we would play as normal but we had recently recieved a complaint from a parent about her child coming home with frostbite. So I thought let's play touch rugby in the gym instead." It was being in the gym that caused Gareth to have his eureka moment: "Two of the boys who don't play rugby asked if they could have a game of basketball since we have got a hoop set up there that never gets used. The rugby boys weren't keen and the basketball we had was flat so I thought now then...why not have a game of touch rugby but instead of a try line you have to get it through the hoop!"

The game was well recieved by the class and throughout the school. When the headteacher Mr. Carlos Evans invested in "Basket Rugby" equipment, he was in doubt that there was something special about it. "We are in full support of the venture Mr. John is taking, despite the fact that he's leaving us." Mr. Evans also noted he wanted his school to be at the forefront of what he has dubbed a "sporting revolution".
