Glastonbury Tor

Before dawn from Glastonbury Tor – Somerset, UK. ID JB_3785

I missed visits to the top of Glastonbury Tor for the solstice and equinox mornings during the pandemic months.  This day was not a special astronomical day, but the weather forecast suggested this could be a very special morning – very cold and misty!

Looking west the street lights illuminated the mist.
