Wastwater from on high

A long hike (for me) today over the tops of Irton, Whinrigg and Illgill fells. They (the weathermen) promised a lovely clear day. But what we (there were several hikers up there) got was fog. Not nice delicate mists ...big fat fog :-(

Yes the day was disappointing, really quite foggy here all day. We are hoping to go to Harrogate tomorrow if it’s clearer! Looks a lovely walk though....you got up quite high but no view sadly!

Good photo, sorry about the weather but I like the layers of land and fog.

I thought it was a good morning until I looked at the Windermere web cams - no point going out onto the lake at all!
Great sense of height here!!

[Sue Rose]

Shame about the fog but hopefully you enjoyed your walk anyway

[Taffy]

The fog makes for a magical scene, but probably not what you'd had in mind!

[Joan Robillard]

Makes for a great shot

[Lesley Aldridge]

Fabulous shot and a better day today, you could always do it again!

[Merrelyn]

I imagine that it would be a spectacular view on a clear day.

Nice foggy shot, we have the same weather here too.

A nice foggy shot but what a shame after all that effort!

[Karly]

It's a great shot even though it was not what you were anticipating.

[Wylie]

Looks like you worked hard for this. The fog is very atmospheric even if not what you were after!

Oh you did make me smile! I remember climbing to the top of Great Gable once on a promise of sunshine. The fog was so thick at the top that I sat down and ate my sandwiches next to a sheep and didn't see it was there until it said "baaa!" Nice shot.

I think a little mist can make a shot. I like this.

[Sue Cooper]

Fabulous shot. Love that fog.

Beautiful colours.
