Dove Stones in heat and drought

Dove Stones in heat and drought
As fires still smoulder on the high moor behind me here, everything looks almost normal here, except that I cannot recall the water level ever being as low as this, especially at this time of year. A little further and I see tree-stumps that have been under water since the building of this dam in 68.

Thanks for remembering John. As you say, such a wonderful place that has always been a magnet for my camera and I. Glad you liked this. PS, I do still have an Dovestones album on here. www.ipernity.com/doc/1081863/album/1049374

I am sure you are right Steve. This was full to the brim a couple of months back. Sure to get much lower before it starts to fill again, probably in our Autumn.

Aye Peter, I can see that happening soon as our fields are tinder dry. Our garden plants have started to whither as our old washing-up water is insufficient to keep them all going. Our garden water-butts dried out a week or so back. Feel sorry for you with an allotment -all that hard work, for nothing! Ah well, there is always our photography to keep us going.

Cheers and chin-up, Herb

Always nice to see you Rosa. This spot is always quite photographic, no matter what the season or condition as my two photos here prove. In that way I know that I am very lucky to have such things nearby.
