Roach End Barn

Roach End Barn. After photographing the dramatic golden hour light at Ramshaw Rocks, the sun eventually disappeared behind the Roaches and into a bank of thick cloud. With plenty of cloud still overhead, I bombed it over to the nearby Roach End Barn with the hopes of catching some afterglow. When I got there I could see a tiny gap under the cloud, so I sprinted up the hill and set up to wait. After what felt like an age, the sun finally dipped below the horizon and the sky lit up with a stunning array of colour.
