Simons Seat

Yorkshire Dales. On my way back from photographing one of the waterfalls on the dales after dark, I saw the outline of the hill (Simons Seat), and the tree against the horizon and could not resist staying to take some long exposures. The light from the town of Harrogate behind the hill gave a beautiful gold to some of the clouds. The hill was supposedly named by Gnostic druids who followed the teaching of Simon Magnus.
