That's the one, it's a quarry close to glencoyne head on the slopes of Green Side. Over to you.

Thanks Anthony, I needed that rather obvious clue.

Which hill is this?

Meteorologists' records would show the blue sky in this picture to be a bit of a bonus.

Think of two biblical brothers (old testament so hopefully this is a multi-cultural clue). Imagine one had a path on the other side of a hill quite nearby named after him. Then the other would have given his name to a feature in this photo.

Going off the clue, because I thought the fell was something else I'm going for Seathwaite Fell with reference to Moses Trod and Aaron Crags.

Clue time, the image was taken close to a long distance footpath and in a national park.

Not there Simon, I'm going to be away for a while so I'll just give the answer and leave the competition open for anybody who wants to post a pic. This one was taken on the edge of Urra moor in the North Yorkshire Moors walking towards the Cleveland way. Over to anybody who wants to post a pic!

It's a nice stripy one, but I don't think I know it - are you going to give us a clue?
