A smokey sunset over Stanhope Common

Originally I was planning on visiting the Common to capture the Comet A3 - Tsuchinshan-ATLAS which was visible in the Western skies and I was cursing as I saw the huge plumes of smoke drifting across the dale, likely from the regular 'cull' of heather to create fire breaks and prevent mass wildfires. Thankfully the smoke was far enough away and, as an added bonus, its interaction with the valley created some beautiful shapes in the sky. I may have quitely muttered an apology just afterwards!
