With a wide angle up against the sun I'm asking for trouble. But this view is probably captured over hundred thousand time. Why not do something different? PS, he is standing on an edge 604 meters above the water.
I am used to waking up to dense low fog in the Bay Area but I did not expect to find fog out in the southwest. For a second morning during our winter trip to the southwest low fog graced the desert landscape after a combination of colder nights and showers combined for prime foggy conditions.
During this last morning before heading home Alan and I were a bit hesitant to get up for a sunrise shoot as visibility was extremely poor. Despite the odds against us we figured we’d give it a shot in hopes of a break in the fog to reveal a potential sky burn. Once we arrived at our scouted sunrise spot we could not see the canyon at all. We waited and waited until suddenly bits of the canyon began coming into view. All of a sudden a gap opened up in the fog and revealed most of the canyon. In that several minute window the sky also burned revealing a rare combination of low fog and high cloud burn. Just after a few frame captures the fog rolled back in and the scene was back to thick pea soup.

The reservoir stands at the side of Ringstone Edge Moor, named after the ring of megalithic stones which once stood on the moor, sadly not much remains to be seen now, the circle is just about visible but the standing stones have long since toppled over.
It stands at 302 metres (990 feet) above sea level, whenever we walk up here it’s always windy and today was no exception. In the distance you can see to the right Flints Moor, towards the centre of the picture is Great Manshead Hill, just to the left of the tower on the reservoir wall you can just see the dam of Baitings Reservoir.
This area is popular with walkers and bird watchers, who must be hardy souls as the weather up here can be appalling. The area surrounding the reservoir is a conservation area in the care of a Yorkshire Water.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

Just a simple winter scene at the edge of a frosted embankment.
The Heron suffers badly in cold winters when ponds and streams are frozen for prolonged periods. The recent run of mild weathers has apparently helped boost the population. In or near water, they are often standing motionless with their head in their shoulders or feeding alone. Juveniles are darker with much less white and lack the long crest plumes. British herons are mostly sedentary, but some do migrate to Ireland and the near-continent, such as France and Holland. In the winter, northern European Grey Herons arrive in eastern Britain, especially along the coast.
Stable Edge on Christmas Day. Dark clouds clung to the tops of the moors all day, but the dale was bathed in sunlight.

This beautiful juvenile Red-tailed Hawk is in its first year of the University of Life. There is more than a 50 percent chance it will flunk out.
Only an estimated 30-40% of its peers will make it through their first harsh Minnesota winter, not only because of biting north winds and snow but also due to their inexperience.
Juveniles are clumsy hunters. While adults live on substantial meals from voles, rabbits, and squirrels, their young start out hunting grasshoppers, frogs, and smaller songbirds. If hungry enough, juveniles will even join a crew of crows, eagles, and vultures that is eating carrion.
Their efforts can be comical in nature. They often fumble in their strikes, drop prey when flying, or choose prey that is too large for them to handle. In their first year, each hunt is a lesson, and the sooner they learn the ropes, the better their survival chances become.
Young Red-tailed hawks can often be observed perching for long periods on utility poles and other objects as they watch everything around them, a part of their study habits that helps in hunting situations.
A clue to identifying juvenile Red-tailed hawks is the lack of the iconic red on their tail, which they will not develop for around another year.
