Special Light, Little Langdale

Didn't expect this.  When I headed out at about 6 am this morning light rain was falling and the clouds were slate grey.  It stayed like that while I was out and It was only by chance that I stopped at Red Bank and noticed the lightening clouds in Little Langdale.  Why it should have been so warm a light, when I was facing south west rather than was towards the rising sun, I know not.  Perhaps a thinness in the cloud cover allowed the sun's rays to warm the cloud cover over the valley.  I managed to take about 6 shots before the light went almost as quickly as it had arrived.

Later in the morning we met up with John and Debs Gravett for a coffee, before we wend our way home after a lovely few days in the Lakes.
