Like the soft early morning light and good details in the foreground Andy, guess it was a cold morning.

Despite the warm colours starting to show, I bet it must have been freezing up there.
A fine frosty landscape.

Thanks Rick & Ronnie. It was a two pairs of trousers morning - freezing doesn't do it justice! Nearly didn't get up there as I kept sliding back down!

Remember that morning well, as was on Burbage with Steve, Paul and Harsh. You did much better than me to capture the conditions, and you're right, was a bit tricky underfoot!

Love the warm glow, a contradiction to the ice.

The warm light belies the tiny icicles fringing the boulders, quite beautiful Andy.
