Soldiers Point, Break Water, Holyhead - filmed from UAV
Filmed with GoPro Hero2 on a DJI550 Hex Coptor running a APM 2.6
Soldiers Point Hotel, also known as the 'Old Castle' building, was built in 1848 as the residence of the Engineer in charge of the Government-sponsored alterations to Holyhead harbour being carried out as part of improvements to the mail route from London to Dublin. John Hawkshaw succeeded James Meadows Rendel in this post when the latter died in 1856.
The grounds of this two-storey castellated Victorian mansion are bounded by curtain walls with 'folly' towers — one of which, looking out onto the harbour, functioned as a pillbox during the Second World War.
Over the years, the house has been used as a private residence as well as as a hotel, and has been derelict for a number of years. In September 2011 the property was gutted by a fire; at the time it had apparently been occupied by homeless people.
The house is owned by Conygar Stena — a partnership between Stena Line and the Conygar Investment Company — and features in their ambitious waterfront regeneration plans for the town. In the proposals, which were unveiled in 2010, the house would be renovated as a new, larger home for Holyhead's Maritime Museum.

Double Sunset or Planet X filmed at South Stack Light House, Anglesey, Wales
DOUBLE SUNSET
The incredible image was captured at South Stack light house in Anglesey, Wales.
The optical illusion which seems almost identical to an iconic shot from the first filmed movie in the series 'A New Hope'.
It's not known what caused the mystical phenomenon but Mr Lewis claims this couldn't be a 'sundog' - caused by light interacting with ice crystals in the atmosphere - as this only occurs at a position 22 degrees from the sun.

Cardiff, South Wales, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe
Cardiff is the capital and largest city in Wales and the tenth largest city in the United Kingdom. The city is the country's chief commercial centre, the base for most national cultural and sporting institutions, the Welsh national media, and the seat of the National Assembly for Wales. The unitary authority area's mid-2011 population was estimated to be 346,100, while the population of the Larger Urban Zone was estimated at 861,400 in 2009. Cardiff is a significant tourist centre and the most popular visitor destination in Wales with 18.3 million visitors in 2010. In 2011, Cardiff was ranked sixth in the world in National Geographic's alternative tourist destinations. The city of Cardiff is the county town of the historic county of Glamorgan (and later South Glamorgan). Cardiff is part of the Eurocities network of the largest European cities. The Cardiff Urban Area covers a slightly larger area outside of the county boundary, and includes the towns of Dinas Powys and Penarth. A small town until the early 19th century, its prominence as a major port for the transport of coal following the arrival of industry in the region contributed to its rise as a major city. Cardiff was made a city in 1905, and proclaimed the capital of Wales in 1955. Since the 1990s, Cardiff has seen significant development. A new waterfront area at Cardiff Bay contains the Senedd building, home to the Welsh Assembly and the Wales Millennium Centre arts complex. Current developments include the continuation of the redevelopment of the Cardiff Bay and city centre areas with projects such as the Cardiff International Sports Village, a BBC drama village, and a new business district in the city centre. Cardiff is the largest media centre in the UK outside of London. Sporting venues in the city include the Millennium Stadium (the national stadium for the Wales national rugby union team and the Wales national football team), SWALEC Stadium (the home of Glamorgan County Cricket Club), Cardiff City Stadium (the home of Cardiff City football team), Cardiff International Sports Stadium (the home of Cardiff Amateur Athletic Club) and Cardiff Arms Park (the home of Cardiff Blues and Cardiff RFC rugby union teams). The city is also HQ of the Wales Rally GB and was awarded with the European City of Sport in 2009 due to its role in hosting major international sporting events. It has been announced that Cardiff will again be the European City of Sport in 2014. The Millennium Stadium hosted 11 football matches as part of the 2012 Summer Olympics, including the games' opening event and the men's bronze medal match. King Edward VII granted Cardiff city status on 28 October 1905, and the city acquired a Roman Catholic Cathedral in 1916. In subsequent years an increasing number of national institutions were located in the city, including the National Museum of Wales, Welsh National War Memorial, and the University of Wales Registry Building however, it was denied the National Library of Wales, partly because the library's founder, Sir John Williams, considered Cardiff to have a non-Welsh population. After a brief post-war boom, Cardiff docks entered a prolonged decline in the interwar period. By 1936, their trade was less than half its value in 1913, reflecting the slump in demand for Welsh coal. Bomb damage during the Cardiff Blitz in World War II included the devastation of Llandaff Cathedral, and in the immediate postwar years the city's link with the Bute family came to an end. The city was proclaimed capital city of Wales on 20 December 1955, by a written reply by the Home Secretary Gwilym Lloyd George. Caernarfon had also vied for this title. Cardiff therefore celebrated two important anniversaries in 2005. The Encyclopedia of Wales notes that the decision to recognise the city as the capital of Wales had more to do with the fact that it contained marginal Conservative constituencies than any reasoned view of what functions a Welsh capital should have. Although the city hosted the Commonwealth Games in 1958, Cardiff only became a centre of national administration with the establishment of the Welsh Office in 1964, which later prompted the creation of various other public bodies such as the Arts Council of Wales and the Welsh Development Agency, most of which were based in Cardiff.
Anglesey's Finest Hour Pt1
During World War 2 Anglesey Abbey was a base for the Home Guard and for the regular army.
It's always been said that an army marches on its stomach, as Martin Stiles, from the Royal Logistics Museum, explains at a WW2 re-enactment weekend at Anglesey Abbey, near Cambridge.

Last Post
Corporal Matthew Creek of the Royal Military College Band plays the Last Post at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra.
The Last Post is one of a number of bugle calls in military tradition that mark the phases of the day. In military tradition, the Last Post is the bugle call that signifies the end of the day's activities. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as Anzac Day and Remembrance Day.
North Wales: Feisty and Poetic
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | We get to know North Wales, as we visit the castle-within-a-castle in Conwy, peek into 16th-century domestic life at Plas Mawr, go down deep in the Llechwedd slate mine, and up high in Snowdonia National Park, then stroll through a Beatle pilgrimage in Liverpool.

Coventry Remembrance Day 2009
A particularly poignant Remembrance Day this year with the recent deaths of Coventry & Warwickshire soldiers in Afghanistan. This contains a video of the parade to the War Memorial Park and photographs of some of the wreath laying, nearby memorials etc. As ever there was a very good turnout from the people of Coventry and I salute all those who took part in the parade.
