Sunrise in Malhamdale

These photos of the spinney at Eshton were take nearly a month ago on an early morning drive up to The Lake District. I had wanted to set off a bit earlier and get up to The Lakes before the sun rose but it wasn't to be. As luck would have it though, the turn off for Malham was on my way so it was only a short detour to my journey and I was well rewarded.

It was a cold and frosty morning and the low sun gave some brilliant shadows, so much so that even the local sheep seemed impressed by it all or maybe they were just surprised and shocked that there was some idiot taking photos at that time of day!

Within minutes of me taking these photos the frost had melted and the moment gone.
