Staple Tors
Staple Tor, Dartmoor
My third trip up to Staple Tor in 26 hours really paid off with a fantastic sunset and a chance to execute the shot that I had practiced on the previous two occasions. I actually almost gave up all hope of a sunset at the base of Cox Tor and was incredibly tempted to turn back, but I thought it would be a bit stupid to go all that way and not even go to the top. Its funny to me how the sky can change at sunset, a seemingly hopeless situation emerging into something spectacular. Its a lesson I am continuing to learn and I still occasionally cancel my plans due to bad weather only to wish I hadnt!
