An hour after sunset. Twilight largely monochrome with a hint of blue in the cold clear sky reflected in the foreground Dovestones reservoir that leads the eye to the hills in the skyline.

An hour after sunset. Twilight largely monochrome with a hint of blue in the cold clear sky reflected in the foreground Dovestones reservoir that leads the eye to the hills in the skyline.

The Sun has set and the autumn colours are fading. The cloudy sky yields to pale orange colours kissing the skyline Oldham lights in the misty distance. In the middle is Dovestones reservoir nestling in the valley shot from high on the edge above.

Out of sight around the corner of the valley below is Dovestones reservoir nestling in the valley shot from high on the edge above. The foreground is littered with car sized grit stone boulders. In particular a flat topped near impossible balanced boulder takes up a proportion of the foreground but still sits before the skyline of the hills and #KinderIntake surrounding the #valley.

A view of northern English moorland, near Denshaw in Saddleworth. It's early evening in spring and the weather is cloudy. Nearby there is a small reservoir. Further away the moorland is on fire - the land is charred black on the left, and orange flames are spreading across the valley and trailing smoke.
It looks bad.

And the moors are burning again. Such a shame if this is intentional. Another year destroyed for ground nesting birds #saddleworth
