Police have caught a man camping near the UK's tallest waterfall during the coronavirus lockdown.
A Dyfed-Powys Police officer discovered the camper at Pistyll Rhaeadr near Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant on Saturday.
The police force and Powys County Council have been warning people to stay away from beauty spots over the bank holiday weekend.

More than 100 vehicles were stopped on Saturday, May 23, and the drivers of four of these were fined for contravening coronavirus rules.
These drivers were in the area specifically to visit the waterfalls, and had travelled from London, Derby, Liverpool and Wrexham.
