Autumn Gold.

I keep saying it but the conditions we were presented with were more than we could ever have hoped for.

 

There is another vantage point just off to the right that provides a similar composition but includes Loughrigg Tarn. Personally I think it's the better comp but another tog was already there and whilst there were several people up by the trig point, the four of us that were in this area kept to ourselves for the first hour or so. I think we were all a little blown away and just wanted to get our shots and savour the spectacle in front of us. I did have a quick chat with one of them who kindly let me stand behind his tripod and take a wider selfie shot that I posted last week.

 

We all ended up back at the convergence of the many paths that weave their way around the undulations, lumps and bumps of Loughrigg and had a chat about what we had just witnessed when the mist and best of the conditions had passed. I could've stayed up here for another couple more hours but had a pressing engagement with a Full English breakfast and a mug of Yorkshire's finest.

 

Probably my favourite shot from the morning.
