This picture of 'Aberystwyth Arts Centre' taken on a summer afternoon - more precisely, it was July 13, 2003 and the time was 6.35pm GMT. My Fujifilm FinePix 2600 Zoom exposure dial was set to the Aperture f/3.5 setting. The camera was handheld, other settings include the whitebalance that was set to "Auto", being a sunny day - this setting helped me obtain that nice color saturation, which I later enhanced on my
computer.

Seafront Criterium Races Aberystwyth

Posted by Llanrhystud Childminder On Tuesday, May 25, 2010 0 comments
Returning after a break of 19 years, the Aberystwyth Seafront Criteriums are back, and have a Saturday evening slot on the racing calendar making them an ideal excuse to spend a couple of days in Mid Wales in close proximity to the Nant Yr Arian MTB trails and some fantastic quiet and challenging training roads in Ceredigion.
Four races in all are planned, starting with Youth Under 12's at 6pm on a 680 metre course on the south side of the promenade, past the famous Pier with Under 16's also racing on this course at 6.30pm.
 After this, the north side of the promenade will also be opened up to increase the course size to 1km for the Go Race event at 7pm and finally a 2/3 race at 8pm lasting one hour plus 5 laps.
Entries are now open on the Ystwyth CC website.
The event is supported by the University of Wales Aberystwyth, Menter Aberteifi, Ceredigion County Council and other local businesses.
The course for the race is a challenging circuit, which is 680 metres for the youth races and later an extra 300 metres of the north prom is opened up for the Go-Race and main event. The race goes anti-clockwise and start and finishes opposite the crazy golf course at the south end of the Old College.
