A new day begins at Brothers Water.
Days earlier I had found this location which had potential if the conditions were right at sunrise. The alarm rang early prodding me out of bed to look out the window where the skies looked promising. I was out the door as quickly as possible, but as it was only a 10 minute walk I wasn't pressured to hurry.
The morning was quite cold . . . only slightly above freezing. As I approached the shore to set up I could see the mist rising off of the mirror like surface of Brothers Water due to the cold temperature. Once set up I relaxed, with the cable release in hand, and enjoyed the beginning of the new day.
Beyond Brothers Water on the left is High Hartsop Dodd with the sunlit ridgeline leading to Harts Crag hidden behind Hartsop above How. It was a serene quiet morning along the shore of Brothers Water that day. Even though I was there for almost an hour, only one vehicle travelled by on the A592 in that time. Apparently, most people sleep in while in the Lake District . . . This is what they all missed!
