I have not been blogging for a while, it seems that on reflection I have just been focusing on getting out and taking photos. If Im on the PC Im processing shots, uploading to my gallery or flickr.

This morning I went out to shoot on Dartmoor again.

I have a soft spot for Dartmoor and just love visiting the moors as the weather/light are just constantly changing. At the moment the change to autumnal colours are superb as usual.

Todays visit focused upon Hayne Down, home of Bowermans Nose. It is the only Tor I know of that has its own gate system. Not too much parking though, from Hayne Down at least, I suppos you can walk up from Mannaton but I never leave sufficient time to get on location for sunrise.

If you went you will probably meet the a local walking his dogs. Scare the life out of me first time I met him and his dogs and I have seen the same guy everytime I go the Bowermans Nose early in the morning and I mean from 6am onwards.

It was extremely windy this morning and I had my reservations about the sturdiness of my tripod, I feel an upgrade coming on. I was pleased with the keeps I got.
