Lovely report. Your post has inspired me to do this walk in the next 2 weeks. I have had it on my to do list since i saw a cracking photo by Neil Barr/photographer here. Check it out here http://www.neilbarr.co.uk/p329263391/h55395409#h55395409 though loving your photos too. Thanks for the inspiration. :clap:
