Another from Saturday's last minute detour to Higger Tor. I think this shows how much fog there was in Hope Valley.

The sun just starting to light up the trees on High Lees.

I wish I'd taken more longer shots on this morning. Though a lot of landmarks were covered. It would have been a good day to use the 24-240mm. As it is, this is the longest end of the 24-105mm.

A back lit view of the Iron Age Hill Fort in Burbage valley.

When I'd first arrived, this area had no fog so I spent most of my time shooting towards the inversion in Hope Valley. I eventually worked my way back to this view as the mist rose up after sunrise. this was taken just in time. Moments later, I was engulfed in the fog.

I think I saw the back of Pete Quinn's head. He looked busy so I didn't say hello. I've never met him, but I saw his photo. Pete was more patient than me and caught the moment the mist started to form over Burbage Valley...

A photo from Saturday morning. I always struggle for foreground on the Western side of Higger Tor. I'd initially tried Curbar Edge which was in the fog so, with a short time left before sunrise, I headed here.

There wasn't much above the fog. Mam Tor on the right horizon was in an out of hill fog.

There's some compositional issues with this shot but I thought it was worth sharing.
