Swinner Gill.
I needed to get out with the camera, so headed out to Swaledale in the hope of getting up to the ruins at Crackpot Hall in the moody weather.
I arrived at Keld in monsoonal conditions with poor visibility, so I ate my sandwiches in the car and then reclined the seats and had a sleep in the hope of waiting the rain out. I woke up after about an hour and the rain had subsided so decided to go for it. The clouds lifted a bit so I headed up to the ruins and then on to the Old Lead Mines at Swinner Gill. The conditions were pretty good for waterfalls and as I had my Circular Polariser with me I decided to try my luck.
Conditions improved on the way down and I got my shots of the Old Hall ruins, which had been on my list for over 3 years. At least I had Keld and the surrounds to myself given the conditions!
