<p>The suns rays light up the Edale Valley after a bitterly cold night. The temperature was at 3 degrees when I left the car, so I dread to think what it was when the wind chill was factored in. <br />
A morning I was definitely glad to have my trusty flask with me.</p>

<p>Christmas Tree display.<br />
<br />
The village shop, primary school, Sunday School, bell ringers group, the choir, the veterans, the ladies circle.......everybody has a decorated tree on display.<br />
<br />
We had warm mulled wine and homemade mince pies while admiring the decorated trees, and very welcome it was too.</p>

<p>Every now and then I stumble across an image I've shot and never post; I then view it 2 years later and can't think why I never posted it.... The light on the trees is actually the overspill lighting from a bunch of ne'er do well light painters accompanying me that evening :-)</p>

<p>A bitingly cold sunrise on Kinder Scout. This is actually a good hour after the Sun made its first appearance, but for a brief moment thick clouds and bright light collided, providing me with the kind of image I was hoping for.</p>

<p>Bracketed images combined in lightroom to make a HDR image. This was because I had no graduated ND filters to dampen the bright sunrise so had to use different exposures and combine them to retain the details in both the foreground and the background.</p>
