Took this last Saturday looking over to Higger Tor, from Burbage North in the Peak District. And was blessed with an amazing sky
I went walking in the Peak District today. It was a little unplanned (I'd actually gone out to do some shopping...) but the weather was just too nice, so I detoured and headed north.
This was the view from the top of a big outcrop I saw from the road and just had to climb. I now know it's called Higger Tor. So this is the view from the top of Higger Tor, looking south over Hathersage Moor.
A thoroughly enjoyable day.
For Christmas I received the excellent "Photographing The Peak District" by Chris Gilbert and Mick Ryan. During my hike I made it my mission to find
On the front cover is this composition shot by Chris which instantly recognised as being by absolute favourite tor on the High Peak; Higger Tor. Carl Wark had been on my list of places I wanted to explore and I just had to find this composition and shoot my own version of it. In a spooky coincidence the conditions and light were almost the same as when Chris shot it. I didn't quite frame it up exactly the same and went for a dead centre composition, but it was a very fun exercise getting 99% of the way there.
A big thank you to my Uncle T for the lovely gift and to Chris Gilbert for presenting such a beautiful composition...he must have been jumping for joy when he found this one!
One Princess Bride filming location bagged, several more to go... (the view towards Higger Tor from Carl Wark near Hathersage)
this picks out a little more frost in the foreground rocks as the sun fills the Burbage valley highlighting Carl Wark and the distant hills. (1/5s f7.1 @ 12mm 0.9 reverse ND grad)

A stormy sunrise on Higger Tor, Derbyshire, UK.
I would much rather shoot on a stormy day than a sunny one.

Yesterday morning up on Higger Tor.
Looked like it might be good when I set off, but this low cloud rolled across, just at sunrise. Fortunately, there was just enough of a gap to give a 2 minute window of light.
Happy New Year to you all.

We went for a walk on Higger Tor, it was blowing a gale. Austen was bracing himself against the wind to take a shot.
Carl Wark Fort, Hathersage Moor , Derbyshire, taken from a point on the Sheffield Country Walk. The fort is believed to have been used as a fortification from the Iron Age up through the Romano - British period and possibly last fortified against the Germanic tribes at the end of the Romano-British period once the Roman Legions had withdrawn. This would give it a working life of five hundred to one thousand years. Higger Tor is the high point of the ridge to the top left of the picture, a well known landmark.
Went out to see if we could see the sunset on the longest day.. Sadly not! But saw these instead! On exercise I guess?
