Sunrise over Broadoak





Following on from my previous blog post, the mists seemed to be quite think on the ground and I wanted to try a different viewpoint, so I moved around the valley and climbed to the top of Pilsden Pen.

By the time I got up there, the sun was up and heating up the valley, and the mists across the Marshwood Vale had all but gone. As I walked around the back of Pilsden Pen and looked out towards the North, the valleys out towards Broadoak, Crewkerne and Ham Hill were full of low lying mist, as far as the eye could see. On the far horizon, to the North East was a small hill poking out of the white sheet of mists, which I think was Ham Hill, but it was too far to get a good shot.

To the East, towards Broadoak, was a great valley and a few ridges on the hillsides, where the mists were swirling breaking up as it flowed over them. A wonderful atmosphere and very beautiful.

Photo comment By Sylvia Pitcher: Fabulous photo and I'm envious! My ancestors lived at Braod Oak and I'm a photographer so have connections. I'll be looking out for more of your images.
