spontaneous light!

Some shots are completely unplanned. We were walking by this scene near Thixendale, and thought maybe there was an interesting element to it even though the light at the time wasn't particularly complimentary. Not to be deterred, we set up anyway and started to study over one or two compositions that we thought might work. As luck would have it, we didn't have to wait too long before a patch of angry looking, dark clouds rolled in overhead and the sun broke through, illuminating the opposite side of the valley in green gold light.
