Disaster Strikes at Lake Vyrnwy
Had a really unfortunate accident on sunday. Only 3 seconds after this image was taken, I slipped on the rock that I was standing on, trying to take the shot with my camera on a tripod. As I went, the camera came with me and I've damaged my 24-70mm Sigma f/2.8 lens and I face planted the rock and have badly bruised the bridge on my nose. The lens won't zoom/focus and the UV filter protecting the lens is bent ;-( I then had a 1hr 30min drive home in terrible pain.
I was also very disappointed with my photos from the trip to Lake Vyrnwy, but thought it was a beautiful place and will return again, putting what I learnt back in to practice.
