This weeks photo challenge is the golden hour… that time of day when the sun is rising to herald new possibilities, when the air is fresh and the world is quiet… when you can breathe deeply, ready for whatever challenges or adventures come your way… or when the sun is setting, the air is warm but there’s a lovely welcome, gentle breeze and you close your eyes and exhale… reflecting on the day as it closes its sleepy eyes.
These were all taken on Dartmoor, Devon in Oct last year, one of my favourite places…
It was very early (and cold) but we were on a mission…
My Mum had recently gained a 2.1 in her degree and wanted to celebrate…
By greeting the sunrise on Dartmoor and toasting with Champagne…
We were rewarded with gorgeous rays of sunshine streaming through the clouds after having rain for most of the week and walked back down the hills somewhat merrier than we went up them…!
I love the steam rising from the hillside as the morning sun dries the rain-soaked earth…
