Description
Though Bodmin Moor covers a comparatively small area, the open, gently curving nature of the plateau landform, punctuated by rocky tors, creates a surprising sense of scale, remoteness and even desolation. These qualities combined with the impression of timelessness, contribute to the Moor's distinctive, often challenging, character. Though many of the roads are now paved, and access by car makes visiting the Moor easy, it is a still a landscape where the traveller can be faced with the natural environment in its most elemental form, where the unwary may easily become lost among the bogs in swiftly descending clouds and mist.
Taken in twilight in mid winter. My hands were frozen from a long trek and getting back to the car I made a makeshift tripod by wrapping my scarf around the camera and jammed it in the electric window.. Thanks for taking time to look and any comments

Excellent and impressive landscape...!!! Fantastic effect of illumination......!!!
Amazing landscape. Looks cold and desolate. The overhanging clouds look like they are filled with rain.
Looks a great place to walk but it can be fricking cold up there in winter, where wind and temperatures play an important role, and good clothing is no luxury at all. The contrasts are pretty high making look the land dark (special mood though), hard to prevent it. Wonderful work, Danny! :)
Fantastic light and rays. Excellent shot!!!
Even in this drearyness there is beauty, and you have found it Danny! I love your quick thinking on the tripod mount...necessity, the mother of invention! Aloha!
What a wonderful moody image!!
Excellently moody! :)
Light curtains :) Yeah, lovely, such a moody wether these days. Andd I am at home, doing work :(
Love it. Heard that every so often someone goes missing around there - something about the "beast of Bodmin Moor." Probably just a myth, but who knows? So take care when your on the moor by night. Smiles. Great job! Great idea for the tripod!!
