Parkhouse Hill Mists

The day was forecast as being one of the warmest and sunniest in October in recent history.  I'd got a half-baked idea that if I woke up early enough I'd head to the Peak District to see what dawn would bring.  Well I woke at 5 am and was in position near Hollinsclough before dawn.  I'd already stopped three times coming into the Upper Dove Valley to capture images of the mist lying across the fields.

I was late getting into this position.  I could see three photographers, two on Chrome Hill and one on the summit of Parkhouse Hill while I was still walking towards the hills. Luckily at this time of year the sunrise aligns with the two hills, providing a late 'sunrise'.  I was quite envious of the two photographers I met and chatted to; both of them live close to the Peak District and don't have the jaunt I'd had just to get to the area.  It was truly worth the effort.
