Nant-y-moel and Ogmore Vale photos, Bridgend, mid Glamorgan, south Wales, UK.: "On a cold and damp late December afternoon, we took a trip through Ogmore Vale into Nant-y-moel and then up on to Mynydd William Meyrick and Craig Ogwr.

It has to be said that the scenery gave us a heavy heart: both villages looked like they'd never recovered the loss of the mining industry in the eighties, and the heavy winter sky compounded the feeling of desolation."
