Vivian Quarry wall of slate. Llanberis, North Wales

            Zoom in! This massive side of a slate mountain is full of texture and those trees at the top are full size just to give you an idea of the scale of this sheer wall of slate. The Vivian Quarry is small but is now closed to the public as it is used for diver training by a private company as there is a small, deep lake at the bottom of the quarry and this scene. I was fortunate enough to get in there on New Year’s Day as it is adjacent to the National Slate Museum and the enormous Dinorwig Quarry. The textures and patterns in the rock are amazing to see. I can only hope that it will reopen for the public to enjoy this incredible sight at some time in the future
