On Thursday I had a cracking afternoon meeting up with James Grant to hit a couple of Peak District gems. Our first destination was Fairbrook waterfall just off the Snake Pass (image to come later) and our final destination was the Salt Cellar on Derwent Edge. We arrived at the Salt Cellar about 20 minutes before the sunset to be met with some lovely rolling clouds with a clear section just above the horizon which we knew would let the sun drop through, we could also see a bank of rain heading fast in our direction so it was a race between the two which would arrive first. We took a couple of shots from the other side of the Salt Cellar than dashed over to the opposite side where I took this shot just as the first heavy drops of rain started to fall. We got soaked on the walk back but well worth it when you get dramatic conditions like these.(Olympus EM-1 mkii 7-14mm f/2.8 pro 1/2 f/6.3 @ 9mm Kase Wolverine GND-R 1.2 (4 stop) reverse grad)
