Morning Light

14 September 2013 Graeme Skinner

I was trying to sketch some ideas this morning, the curtains were open, and I tried to ignore the outside world until I managed to get something onto paper worth looking at. Unfortunately the Sun was breaking through the cloud and illuminating a thin layer of mist in the Eden Valley, so I put down the sketchbook and picked up the camera. Now I should really pick up the sketchbook again and work out what I was thinking of this morning, before I became a little distracted.

“The light looks good on the Pennines….” I look up from my iPad, pausing a game bookmarking the quantum field theory article for later, and look out the window. Julie was right, the last rays before the Sun started to set were hitting a small patch of the Pennines and I pushed my digital distraction aside and pulled out the camera bag all the while glancing at the view out of the window. As I open the camera bag the light changes, and the hills are almost lost in shadow,…

It’s the best I could do ;-)

I forgot the camera this morning (or rather my head wasn’t in ‘thinking mode’ when I set off for work at 0500hrs), anyway, the mist and light was too good to miss and so I took a snap on my phone 😉

Morning mist…

…just for a change* 😉 *making the most of the chance of getting out with the camera while the weather lasts.
