Over Owler Tor in August

Another slightly grainy image. I was wondering why it was so grainy when I realised it was taken at ISO 11,400! So with hindsight I could easily have selected a slower shutter speed and produced a higher quality image. It's amazing how low the light can actually be just before sunset, even when the sun is shining. Anyway, this image was taken at a place equally popular with photographers and people who just like to go to a high place and watch the sun sink below the horizon. In late August it's a particularly great location when the heather is in full bloom and the air filled with honey.
