Winskill Gold.
After a long day of walking and savouring the varied delights of the Yorkshire Dales. I ended up at the lone tree at Winskill Stones with fellow Flickr buddies, John Bleakley, Terry Roberts and Brad Eide. It did not look promising for sunset, but we persevered in hope!
The cloud on the Western horizon had a small eye shaped aperture of possibility as sunset approached. The question was, whether this aperture was sky clear enough for the sun to poke through or just another lighter layer of cloud!
I had been here many times before and always come away with something worthwhile, but for our visiting American friend this was a first! When the sun got near to the horizon, it was clear we were going to get some light and wow, it turned out to be really nice golden light, which delighted our TOG from over the pond.
This is two seperate RAW files one exposed for the foreground at f11 and one for the sky at f22.
