The hills are alive....

Decided to go out for a walk the other night. We went out the front door and just as I turned to lock it, I noticed something odd.

"What the HELL is that?"

I got my camera, and this is the view down the street:



We decided then to take the car to have a look and see what we could see, so we drove until we came to the first point that we could start to see something:



We walked up along the road and out of the village:















And some of the fire crew surveying the scene:







We went over to the other side of the valley to get a wider view of what was happening



And a couple of gratuitous car shots:





All pictures taken hand-held, available light only. Canon EOS 5D, ISO 1600, EF 24-105 F4L IS.

 

who'd have thought it - live volcanos in the uk...

good pics tho...

actually - I've just brought in my lady's little casio with me from now on (to and from work etc) as when I was driving home last night - I took a slightly different route home last night (past derwent reservoir, edmunbuyers and stanhop etc) and I saw some llamas roaming about and a load of moor's heather being burned too...

 

crazy!!
