Haystacks

I went out tonight for an hour before dark. The sky was very cloudy and dark and the sun was setting making some of the clouds light up red. Here's 3 images I hope you like them. I'm off to bed now it's late. Night everyone.

Tunstall Reservoir, Weardale



Tunstall reservoir is located within the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has an excellent walk along its eastern edge through a semi-natural broadleaved woodland. The Tunstall reservoir walk is not only a very scenic and relaxing walk but once in the woodland offers the chance to view a variety of wildlife.

Had a lovely day at Tunstall Reservoir near Woolsingham. The geese were in a field next to the reservoir when I got there and I got one shot before they flew off onto the water itself. It seemed funny seeing them in a field with haystacks.

On the moors & Weardale





What a lovely sunny day, beautiful blue skies, a bit windy and cool, but nevertheless a wonderful day. It was so nice to see the sun all day. I decided i'd take a ride up on the moors and along by the reservoir. The views around are spectacular and my wide angle lens just doesn't do them justice.
