It\u2019s been one of those days where the weather can\u2019t make its mind up. Bright in the morning, grey and rain in the afternoon with no hope of a breakthrough in time for sunset. I was hoping to get out this evening but things were looking dull and uninspiring.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However within a minute the sky above Loughrigg was illuminated with an amazing pink glow. I headed out to see more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Down at the bench Loughrigg was wrapped in a layer of mist.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Langdale Pikes were silhouetted by an amazing glowing sunset.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Mist in the valley adding atmosphere to a magnificent treat after a dull afternoon.<\/p>\n

A little tweaking of the colours reveals a rather dramatic scene.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A wider view of the surrounding area.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I had a little walk up to the viewpoint where there is a clearer view of the Langdale Pikes. The sun has gone behind the fells now but a little mist remains.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There seemed to be much more mist around Loughrigg, perhaps from the River Brathay as it meanders through the valley.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The last of the days light reveals a subtle pink glow.<\/p>\n

Here you can see more of my Lake District Prints from around Loughrigg<\/a> and Prints\u00a0of Langdale here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Below is a short video I captured.<\/p>\n
