At the end of August I set off on my annual holiday to Grasmere where I was due to help at Grasmere Sports and then to enjoy a few days with my camera.
Two Lake District Sunrises
Whilst in the Lake District at the end of August I experienced 2 sunrises which were both beautiful but different. On the last full day I set the alarm for 4.15am in order to give myself time to drive over the Kirkstone Pass to Ullswater and arrive an hour before sunrise.
Rydal Water Mist
The day after Grasmere Sports I woke up and staggered to the window for weather investigation purposes. It was foggy but through my yawns I realised that this would burn off and hopefully produce some amazing effects. Quick. Quick. Where should I go?
Lake District in September
In addition to standing and admiring the Langdale Pikes from every conceivable angle I did get out and about elsewhere in the Lake District. I decided that I would explore some different places which led me to the Duddon Valley and Dovedale (near Brotherswater).
