Early summer morning at the picturesque village of Corfe Castle, Dorset.
A last minute decision to stay overnight before going to Camp Bestival the following day.
I had set out to shoot Durdle Dor at night, but decided the 'blue' moon was too bright to do any worthwhile astro shoot with.
The bright full moon didn't do the castle justice either (I will return at some point to shoot some night images there without the full moon) but the village itself looked rather lovely in the soft light and summer greenery, later that morning.
I had a bit of a wander around looking for somewhere to go for a decent breakfast but there was nowhere open early morning, so headed off to Swanage for a full English.
*First upload with my new Canon 5D3. So far, I have to say I'm very impressed, especially with it's low light / high ISO capability. I wish I'd taken the plunge years ago.
