After my previous post, I thought I'd share another photograph from the Yorkshire Dales trip earlier this year.  Compare it with the photograph in the previous post and the differences between the high moorland and the lower-level stone walled fields are stark.

It's not somewhere I've photographed before but I have been there climbing and so had a vague knowledge of the area.  Considerable advance research was still needed, if only to identify a good location to stay!  Such research is always hard, no amount of looking at maps, Google Street View etc can surpass actually visiting an area.  I normally prioritise the review of maps to assess topography and sun rise/set angles over looking at images and photographs captured by others.
