Description
For this particular morning, my plan was to be up on top of Mam Tor in the Peak District long before dawn ready to shoot the sunrise over the Hope Valley. Typically though, I managed to oversleep by about an hour. Driving like a man possessed, I witnessed the most beautiful colours in the sky as I tore down the road from the A6 towards the car park. Furious at myself for my ineptitude, I deliberated over bailing and heading back to a warm and toasty bed but decided as I’d come all this way that I may as well see it through. Donning my gear and scrabbling up the path as quickly as possible, I was pleasantly surprised when not only did the sun not disappear behind the clouds as soon as it had crested the horizon, but stayed visible and produced some lovely rays through the high cirrus clouds. Amazing how many people were up there that morning; lots of fell runners, cyclists and several other photographers - all desperate to be up and out of bed at daft o’clock in the morning!
