A return trip to my favourite beach, set amongst the sand dunes of Kenfig Nature Reserve. The inspiration for my novel ‘ Skerrid Mawr ‘. It didn’t disappoint. #monochomemonday #nature #naturism #freedom #mensmentalhealth #wales #nonsexual

I stand naked, except for a cap and plimsoles, facing the sun with my back to the camera.
Either side of the narrow pathway that leads to the strandline, rests the wispy marram grass. It stands tall, yet devoid of any verdant hue in the continual heat.

A summers day Parkrun. Where better than Richmond Park, one of HenryVIII’s many green spaces- except they are scorched right now! Deer resting in the shade and more cyclists out than the Tour De France. Reasons to be cheerful. #parkrun #5k #londonparks #running #nature #fun

Lake Swimming & Clothing Optional 😊 A warm morning and a choice of cool lakes. Uncrowded, safe and respectful. Perfect. Summertime…and the living is easy ❤️ #monochromemonday #wildswim #swim #naturism #freedomofchoice #lake #trees #sublime

The frame composes two pictures, both of a lake open for clothing optional swimming.
Above, the smallest lake complete with several single slatted benches around its perimeter. A backdrop of trees and, to the right , a family geese settled on the grass bank.
Below, a larger lake, more popular for textile swimmers and body boarders.
The two lakes are divided by a small strip of grass, cushioned by large swathes of lush reeds.
Summertime…and the living is easy.

Happened upon this amazing tree, one that I have passed by many times. However, last night, the evening sunlight changed its whole perspective compared to that of the morning, throwing leaf shadows upon its bark and upon my body. #forest #naturism #wales #freedom #iphone #hike

Warm Wales in mid July. It is the evening of the day… The paths are bone dry yet the forest still brings a freshness, one that I can both inhale and feel upon my bare skin. It doesn’t get much better than this. #thicktrunktuesday #forest #hike #nature #wales #freedom #mindfulness #naturism

A dry brown path wends its way through the tall, thin pine trees of a Welsh forest. It has been another hot day yet the forest brings a freshness to my lungs and my skin, like nothing else can.
Mid picture, the sun sits behind a pine tree, as it makes its final descent of the day.

The hazy,lazy days of summer. Sat upon a cliff bench,we enjoy views of the Bristol Channel under the early evening sun. A patriotic flag is kept aloft by the warm summer breeze,whilst the tall hay bends under its power.Time stands still. #wales #unedited #coast #eveningsun #summerbreeze #iphone

The joy of birdsong in this very hot weather 🌞 #wales #woodlands #forestfriday Tell me what you think this chirpy blackbird is saying.

It’s too darn hot 🥵 🔥 No walkies for my Saluki today, and he knows it. Wales in Red Weather Warning Zone today. As The Stereophonics might sing ‘Maybe Tomorrow’- if it’s cooler. #wales #dog #forest #walkies #keepsafe #hydrate

My tan coloured Saluki is depressed. No walkies due to the intense heat in Wales today.

Foxgloves,Ferns & Freedom. Friday evening forest foray turns out to be clothes free. Car park totally empty. Opportunity taken. Just me,my dog & my thoughts on Solstice weekend. So very energising. #forestfriday #woodlands #mindfulness #trees #nature #photography #iphone #hiking #landscape #naked

Humid conditions in the forest have accelerated the growth of ferns-as seen in the foreground, with tall purple foxgloves behind extending their way right down an avenue of tall pine trees.

Nick Davieson@skerridmawr· Jun 19

Do you ever visit the forest in the summer when it’s raining? It’s very rewarding. The smell of petrichor on the stones, the rain on your skin and the birds still singing loudly. Magnificent #forestfriday #woodlands #mindfulness #trees #nature #photography #iphone #hiking #landscape

A brown, stoney forest path cuts its way through bushy trees and ferns.
In the foreground lay several large boulders , dry until a few minutes ago.
The rain on its hot surface produces that unique smell of petrichor.
I breath it all in.

Tis the season for clothing optional outdoor swimming. A totally immersive naturist experience in managed lakes where most opt to swim naked. Safe,peaceful & friendly. No issues,total respect. #monochromemonday #naturism #wildswimming #nonsexualnudity

I sit, with my naked back to the camera, on the edge of a lake where clothing optional swimming is allowed.
Surrounded by nature, it provides the most perfect and safe environment to enjoy a swim, without wearing a costume.

Me, the gnomon in a sundial, standing atop of Twmbarlwm, Wales. The time: 7am Over 1300 feet above sea level. Alone. It’s a wonderful world up here;Time stands still. #wales #forest #mountain #nudeart #nonsexualnudity #naturism #naturist #hike #mensmentalhealth #welshhills

I stand naked upon Twmbarlwm, Wales, over 1300 feet above sea level.
The site of an ancient hill fort, where only the base stones show through.
It is 7am and I am alone, standing like a gnomon in a sundial, looking into the sun to my east.

Mindfulness #Monochromemonday Above ground,there sits a benign lake,easy and still. However,below ground level, the Angidy River powers it’s way down to Tintern and into the River Wye at considerable speed. Why is the sound of rushing water so very calming? A hidden gem #water #mensmentalhealth

#Mindfulness #monmouthshire #summer #wales #border #lake #forest #birdsong #naturism A beautiful Summer Weekend near the banks of the River Wye. The hordes are trying to find car parking spaces whilst I am here, enjoying tranquility. Don’t do what everyone else does, find your own space.

#Monochromemonday Hiking naked through my favourite forest at 6am on Saturday. I saw no-one. No-one at all. The prevalent broom bush festooning my path with the brightest of yellow petals. Such treats are to be enjoyed to the full. #naked #hiking #freedom #nature #naturism #wales #mensmentalhealth

I stand naked, in awe of nature.
Broom bushes ,to my right, boast bright yellow petals.They prevail along the dry mud paths.
Above, I am surrounded by the pine trees of the forest, extracting carbon from the air, allowing my lungs to breathe clean fresh air.

The River Kenfig in South Wales. I took this picture just 2 years ago. Reports today suggest it has been decimated with pollution☹️ The river feeds the Kenfig Nature Reserve and crosses Sker Beach.It’s an important site for wildlife and also a popular site for many naturists. Is nowhere safe anymore?

The author is seen kneeling in the River Kenfig ( Afon Cynffyg in Welsh language) less than 2 years ago. It looks clear and clean. Reports today on local media state suggest it has been decimated by pollution and is unsafe. ☹️

British Bluebells in abundance. Early morning. Enjoying the sunshine.Keeping off the main forest tracks for privacy. Wonderful. Truly wonderful. #naturism #forest #nakedhiking #wales #outdoor #april #bluebells #mensmentalhealth #nowinnaturism #britishnaturism #nonsexual

With the sun on my back, I stand, propped against a mature tree, in amongst a carpet of bluebells. Bothered by no-one.
Alone and happy.

Visage: We ‘Fade Away From Grey’ very soon,as Spring now approaches. A wonderful winter walk and the sun creating a lovely silvery sheen to this shot. ( ‘Fade to Grey’ was written locally. It just seemed to fit 🤗) #trees #forest #forestwalk #woodlandwednesday #treeclub #iphone #iphone12

A woodland pathway, the sun low in the sky, shining through a bare tree that will soon bud again.
Saplings either side create a silvery avenue.
The winter will soon disappear and the picture will be full of colour soon.
So, the visage will soon ‘Fade Away from Grey’.
The song ‘ Fade to Grey ‘ was composed very close to this South Wales location.

The best barcode you could ever wish to see. #forest #forestfriday #wales #mensmentalhealth #nature #scape #hiking #treescape #photography #PhotographersofBlueSky #january

In the foreground are many dark lines of tree trunks, conspiring to create a barcode.
Behind, in the early morning sunlight, are the frosty white fields, completing this soft illusion.

The stillness of a Winters Day. Vivid green moss covers the sprawling branches of a long fallen tree, yet it makes me feel alive. #forestfriday #wales #forest #woods #mensmentalhealth
