Beautiful shots and drone footage. I look forward to watching more of yours in the future. Thank you.(Well done the campers telling the coastguard just the same).

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Terry

Awesome, brilliant shots now on my bucket list.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Jayne

[@timrosenburgh9485]

Brilliant video Jason. Fantastic drone footage with brilliant drone images. Great camera images too. Ah well you also got a boat ride as well, what a day. Glad you got back safely. All the best.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johndunlop5194]

Jason's big adventure lol. Cracking photos though 👍😄

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Cheers John

[@DGriffGallery]

Can't believe you got yourself stranded! When you said high water was 3 hours away I thought, blimey you're cutting it fine 😂👍 Thing is, the tide times are for high / low slack water. But the channel is often impassable on spring tides a good few hours either side of the high water time. So the quoted time was probably right. Anyway, great image and drone work, so not all bad! About time for another collab soon mate?

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I left an hour before the high tide was predicted but was too late. i got the shots thats all that matters lol and the drone footage i wanted...Collab soon sounds good David

[@owainsphotography397]

haha that's funny. I would have loved to have stayed for sunrise. I am loving your vlogs, great job.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks so much!

[@MrDefenderofsteel82]

Nice Video with beautiful shots Jason, best regards.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks

[@johnspencer1146]

A great vlog, great images and a great adventure, what more could you ask for, besides a warmer coat, well done Jason.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

just how i like it coat would top it off :)

[@dradmin792]

Great capturies!

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks

[@alanjones4075]

The drama of it all. Great shots there. Missed out on sunrise shots!

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

If the rescue had not turned up i could of stayed for a sunrise

[@jimcooke5590]

Brilliant Jason, your not the only one, i got stuck there last august and couldn't get back till 2.30am and just loved the peace and ambience that time in the morning, loved the images they were awesome

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Im sure many have the coast guard did say that the tides were coming in high at this time

[@cliveingram9840]

Great photos Jason. I’m praying for a decent sunrise tomorrow . Very brave to publish the rescue I suspect you may get some stick from Mr Compton!!

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Probably will Clive

[@JonStallings]

Looks like the pain of getting stuck was worth the gorgeous images

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

It was Jon

[@cdduffy]

Love it there Jason you certainly done the place justice that's for sure. 💪

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Cheers Colin

[@alexandermenzies9954]

What fantastic shots, Jason. I always admire your colour palette but these are truly superlative; as you say, the ambient light was very favourable and you have put it to great use. The prospect of a chilly night looked as if suffering for art was about to be played out but well done Coastguard. :-)

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Was well worth it for the light i had...thanks

[@ChrisPattonPhotography]

Fantastic vlog Jason really liked the images, it's one of my favourite locations. Very tense ending, think I would have had to cannibalise the other two if I'd been stuck there all night 😆

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@chrish3305]

Great video including the history of the tidal island and lighthouses. Tide caught a few people out close to the sunset, so easily done. I’ve learnt from it and enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing the whole story

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Chris

[@robertfalcon6648]

Your Vlogs are like watching In The Line of Duty you never know what's going to happen next

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

haha the way i like it

[@glynollier3727]

Two words Jason. Absolutely stunning. You really captured the beauty and mood of the place. Another few hours and you could have captured the sunrise as well 👍📷

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I had it in mind actually Glyn

[@tobyjugg6202]

CLASSIC !!!!! 😂😂😂 Great shots, both in camera and the drone footage was marvellous - then I have to admit I peed myself laughing at the phone call - classic Jason, classic. Well worth another Ko-fe lad, its on its way 👍

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Cheers very kind of you

[@pauladavies5585]

I said from the beginning of the vlog, that you were going to get stuck! I howled laughing. So sorry, but it was hilarious. What an adventure! The island is so beautiful it doesn’t look real. Drone footage is amazing, as are the beautiful images, which are some of the best I have seen of the island. You were sitting on my wall having your roll. That was Davies cottage in the programme they made for tv. I love the bays on the other side of the island too. Some cracking shots to be had there. Wonderful place. ( and a bloody good laugh!) Thanks Jason.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

It was funny well i found it funny...ye i wanted to go back there and do a good vlog and some good drone footage i think the end was the icing on the cake lol

[@pauldlewis3138]

Nicely done Jason, some of your best work imo .... the images from 14:00 to 15:04 are just wonderful, only slight crit is the second one could do with a slight anticlock twist to straighten the skyline as it plays with my head a little. Being stranded like that reminds me of when as a kid me and my brother were stranded by the tide at The Mumbles and missed the last bus back to Llansamlet ... lol

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Paul

[@markhindle9039]

Demi Moore shot a movie at Llanwyn island , sometime in early 2000., that’s why the lighthouse looks in great condition...Hi Jay. 👍

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Ye I remember the set on the island.. Not heard from you in a while hope all is good

[@leethburn]

Good set J...I did the very same thing when I was down for a few days 2 weeks ago after I stripped off it was like being in the swamp with bag and tripod above my head ..wading through it all....it’s only waist high you know..lol..

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Ye wasn't sure to do it because of my camera gear :)

[@leethburn]

@@jasonjonesphotography610 I wasn’t either J I have 2 false knees 5 damaged discs and false toe joints and I’m allways falling down,I use a Sony A9 system with Zeus lenses and thought if I go down in here I was lucky ,mind my feet were lovely and warm after I,did it..it wasn’t bad though..

[@ticticboom1]

I got stuck there one night last summer, doing astro. luckily the tide was going out, and it was a warm night. Only had to wait about an hour. You can be cut off up to an hour and a half either side of high tide, depending on the moon phase. Be careful!

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Cheers Brian

[@helenadams9162]

Oh my word J, you are a legend, takes me back to January last year, went to Anglesey to take pictures of a "shipwreck" was so engrossed I lost track of time. Cut a long story short, I was stuck in the middle of the estoury with water all around me. Thought I was a goner, water up to my chin. By the time I got back to the car that also was under water...try explaining that to the insurance company 😪 Still....could have been a funeral instead of a new car 🚗.... Your pictures tonight are just awesome, some of the finest I've seen for a while. The colours and composition are stunning & the Drone photography is 👌. Was a pleasure bumping in to you the other week at Dinorwig, ill be back tomorrow....I'll get to the top if it kills me...😂

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

That sounded like a nightmare when you got caught up in the estoury and the car being submerged in water...holy shit...maybe i should stay away from that location. Hope you get to the top great views from there.

[@desgardner7169]

There was a lesson to be learned here Jason don't believe all you read about the time of the tide!.....When your phone rang I thought the caller was going to say where are you? your dinner is on the table!!!!!...joking aside you got some great images and the lighting was very kind to you...Well done and Thank You...

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Lesson i learned DONt LEAVE YOUR COAT IN THE CAR lol

[@desgardner7169]

@@jasonjonesphotography610 yes that's a point, glad you got home safely though.

[@patrickdonnelly514]

Stunning pics and drone footage, as for the tide, probably didn't add the hour on for summer time. Some local tide tables don't have the times an hour forward from winter time,they just put it in small print saying to add it on.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Ye i think i need to learn more about how the tides actually work

[@JohnKrill]

Classic! Yea you really didn't need the rescue. Haven't we all done similar messup. I once walked 15 miles out a trail in Canonlands, UT. The plan was to go 5 or 6 miles. So I had to walk back in the dark through several small canyons with no idea where the trail was. Wasn't to sure if I was going to make it. To make it worse I didn't tell the Park Service where I was going. So when I finally got to the flats I was very relieved.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I didn't really mind and i did not want to bother the rescue guys

[@tubeplough]

Been there done that, February 2020 during Storm Dennis which made for some good photos. I was with my mate and we waded off thigh deep in seawater. We were following another guy who left his family behind! He was smaller than us so we figured if he could make it we could. Madness in retrospect!

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I would of followed that guy if he had gone through but didn't risk it with my camera gear

[@chja-pi1nh]

Great vlog as usual! Certainly not the first to be caught out by the tide there and not the last I bet.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I bet it happens quite often

[@chja-pi1nh]

@@jasonjonesphotography610 I’ve done it before and had to wait it out round the back of cottages to shield from the wind🥶 always been dead wary since!

[@iaincphotography6051]

You've got to laugh, still, the CG had a ride out so good for them. Could understand if there was a low-pressure system coming in as that would give a higher tide! You could look at the shipping forecast as well as the tide times. Thanks for the trip out Jason, enjoyed that.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Iain

[@raybeaumont7670]

Ha! Trust you to get stuck Jason. But thanks for a great vlog - and for the info about the cottages - I always wondered who would live there. I wish I could do the walk to the island but there's no chance these days. Maybe you should pack a wet suit in the camera bag - just in case. Hwyl am nawr.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I wouldn't mind living in one of them cottages Ray... more like a rubber dingy than a wet suit :)

[@iainmc9859]

Great shots. So we discovered Canute is not your middle name. Pity the campers called the Coast Guard in, it would have made for an interesting end of the vlog. Never caught out by a tide but, before the days of GPS and mobiles, I once lost my way in the Torridon Mountains in the mist and walked up the wrong glen, by the time I realized it was the wrong glen it was a matter of camping down for the night. Thankful, the next morning, the first cottage I stopped at to clarify my exact location took me in, made me breakfast and gave me dry socks.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

It would of been pretty entertaining i would of probably started getting cold and cursing, would of quickly turned into an x rated vlog

[@paulinehardman9908]

It was RNLI Trearddur Bay Lifeboat that picked you up.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Ahh ok we had no idea it was coming as we were just going to sit it out... we would'nt of called the coast guard but the campers on the other side saw us and called them up

[@paulinehardman9908]

@trearddurbaylifeboatstation @volunteerfortrearddurbaylifeboatstation

[@grahamkeegan2706]

A lot of the tidal predictions are based on GMT. did you allow for that ? loved the vlog, its one of my favourite locations to shoot.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

That was my first experience with tides i did try and leave an hour before high tide...was out of luck :)

[@mikewarrender9646]

Hi Jason, do you use nd or cpl filters on your drone ?

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

No filters Mike

[@williamgoodwin9956]

I had the same predicament there a few years ago. I decided to wade across with the camera rucksack on my head. As you know the walk back to the car park with wet trousers was not comfortable and it was pitch black.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

I was thinking of wading through but did not want to risk it with all my camera gear

[@Tblpeps]

you should really be looking at getting off the island 2 hours before high tide

[@pauladavies5585]

Agreed . Lol

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks Richard i never knew that... at least ive learned something new :)

[@Tblpeps]

@@jasonjonesphotography610 No problem, tbh you picked the wrong day as far as tides are concerned, At the moment we are on a spring tide which means the tide had a rise of about 5 meters. In 5 days we will be on neaps and the tide will rise to between 3.5 and 4 meters. Also sometimes the sand bar between the island and the main land is of such a height that the tide doesn't or barely cuts the island off. Saying that I would still be off the island 2 hours before high tide. Anyway Some stunning pictures and video's.

[@BrianHorsey]

**it happens, Jason. Nice vlog tho’.

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Exactly it was fun

[@AgSmithsilversmith]

One of my favourite places, but I haven't been for a long time. I have waded through ankle deep water when I miss judged the tide on one occasion. Beautiful pictures at the end

[@jasonjonesphotography610]

Thanks
