The annual Cardiff St David’s Day Parade took place last Friday. It’s a traditional Cardiff event I have photographed a number of times. Although I remain disappointed about missing the 2018 event.

Princess Catherine of Cambridge had visited a charity in Caerphilly around 12 months earlier, but with the big wedding a handful of months away, […]
Welcome to the second part of this 2017 photo review of images uploaded to this site over the year. It takes the not very imaginative form of covering the 6 month period from July to December. If you missed the first part, you might want to pop back there before continuing. Or you might not. […]
