Description
when i look at this shot it makes me realise what a unique landscape dartmoor is....
hard eroded plugs of granite that sit ....essentially on a peat bog....
This shot is typical of a dartmoor tor...granite stacks of character that jutt from the moorland landscape that surrounds them...
i walked about 5 miles to this tor....it is on the edge of the military firing range...when i got there i noticed a large bag of rubbish stuffed between the rocks ....Watern tor is outside the range area...i could not believe soldiers had left this there....so i checked it out and found a document from a particular army unit...a document pertaining to operations in afghanistan ...
so i was left with no other option other than to carry this bag of rubbish off the moor...needless to say i contacted the commanding officer running the training area on dartmoor....
The unit were brought back to clean up their mess...and i had an apology from the officer in charge of the exercise....

Lovely shot - I really like how the warm orange of the grass and stones contrasts the blue sky. I fear one day, I'll have to see for myself what a beautiful spot Dartmoor is!
