First light on Park Fell
Elterwater Reflections
by Pete Rowbottom

A great mornings shoot in the Lakes with Brad Eide and Terry Roberts BingleymanPhotos , the conditions the previous night had looked good for fog so we decided to head to a much lesser known riverside location to see what could be had.

The conditions were pretty much full on fog / mist when we got there which I love shooting in, just waiting for breaks in it to reveal a bit more of the area bit by bit, lots of potentially different images but at the same location.

As the sun came up the light was having a real hard time breaking through the dense fog in places in the opposite direction to this image, while we were shooting I keeping checking back on the fells behind, for a very short time the tops of Park Fell cleared and took on a really great red glow reflected into the still waters below, this really didn't last for very long at all and it was a case of working quickly, you could do with a 360 degree revolving head like an owl on mornings like this !!

Elterwater Reflections

An image from a fantastic morning near to Elterwater, the sun had broken over the horizon and the mist was now beggining to be evaporated in its powerful glow.

This misty scene was changing very quickly with the low lying mist drifting quite fast to the left of the frame and now also being disrupted by the first sunlight of the day, the water still remaining perfectly calm this made for fantastic shooting conditions.
