Not much chance of a good image today; pre-dawn overcast a couple of hours ago...

Re: Bank Edge View
Thanks Ian. Have missed most sunsets in last couple of weeks; glad I caught yesterday evening's.
This is one from about twenty past six this morning.

Re: Bank Edge View
I guess you may be driven mad by an endless succession of sunrise and sunset pics.
Here's one of last night's moon, taken from our bathroom window.

Re: Bank Edge View
Fed up of mist; here's a brief glimpse of the sun before sunset this evening.
From the forecast, it looks like the settled weather is due to end just at the equinox...

Re: Bank Edge View
Not to worry, we've got a couple of dry days left - and I for one could do with a change from the murk.
Not only did I get a sunrise this morning, after 91 frames, I got a skein of geese as well!

As my mate Roger Perry once said, "Never take pictures of birds flying, they always look like bits of crap on the negative".

I can never tell them from the crud on my screen...
This is one to pair off with this morning's; a crow obligingly flew across the face of the sun as I took frame 174 of today's sun pictures...

Re: Bank Edge View
David, you've reminded me of an exercise the TV companies did when digital was coming in. They set up a transmitter in Waddington and got the villagers to try the new system out. At the end when they did their assessment they admitted that the biggest single improvement they made overall was to clean the screens on all the sets. They said some of them were unbelievably dirty.

Re: Bank Edge View
When I was a TV Engineer it was company policy to clean all TV's and other equipment that came in for bench service before returning it to the customer. Under normal circumstances the boss said it was generally worth a fiver on the bill with privately owned equipment.
I did a normal clean up on a set once and when I took it back the customer refused to accept it saying that the set wasn't hers, the picture was too bright and the cabinet colour was wrong. Hubby smoked a pipe and I had simply removed 3 - 4 years of Condor residue from the set. She had forgotten what a clean screen and a Teak cabinet looked like!

Closest I got to snapping the equinoctial sunset, as I had to go out to a meeting...

Since my eyes started to deteriorate I have been a very good man at cleaning spectacle lens and screens!

Re: Bank Edge View
We're having a very quiet transition into October, long may it continue. I see that the water level in Haweswater is falling and revealing the old village.
Daniel and I went up there in 1976 and had a rare old time wandering round the ruins of the old pub and roads.
Construction started in 1929 actually and there is no mention of Measand or Mardale Green, the two villages submerged.

The weather has been better than forecast for the last couple of days. I am not complaining....
