Sunlit Pines
Sentinels in reflection

Sunrise at Buttermere, 0527 AM, golden light hitting the mountains and trees and refelcted into the still waters. A truly gorgeous morning well worth the alarm clock going off at a silly time yet again. The little fishing hut would be a great place to live ! The pair of swans basking in the sunlight, sitting nice and still, were an added bonus, they flew off across the lake almost immediately after I'd finished this series of shots.

Another panoramic image from Buttermere at dawn with a wider view than the last one, this one was taken a little earlier than the previous image with the attractive house on left included, the warm light was less intense but still it was nicely warming the hills and trees.

It took a few attempts at getting these as numerous times in the middle of the sequence of shots the water started to ripple and ruined the image, so it was back to square one again, and hope for it to fall flat once more before getting another base exposure reading then starting another sequence. Thankfully it did fall flat again which just meant working quickly while it was still dormant.

You can see how much the light changed in the scene in the space of just 7 minutes here - www.flickr.com/photos/pete37038/26647769856/in/photostream/
