Before Dawn

one I forgot from my trip to Mam Tor during the cloud inversion. I arrived about an hour before the sun came up to this amazing sight. The mist was pouring over the ridge. I took Tia with me as I found it a bit scary up there in the dark on my own with all my camera kit. She growled, I looked and in the distance, coming up the hill was a light shining from a fellow photographers head torch!
