Smoked Sunbeams at Arnside Knott
This photo which I use has my header for the "I Love Arnside and Silverdale" blogsite. It is also used on a feature poster for the Cumbria Biodiversity Data Centre at Tullie House Museum at Carlisle for their mobile displays (see photo below).
By a stroke of luck one day whilst heading through Arnside Knott, I quickly became aware of foresters coppicing and burning wood, but the extroadinary thing was that the wind must have just been in the right place at the right time, subsequently bringing a horizontal flow of smoke which caught the sunbeams and gave them the blue haze which you see in the photo.
You would be surprised just how many folk have asked how did I get the sunbeams to show so prominently, when they have tried time and time again without any satisfied results, well you now know - you do need to have the magical ingredient falling into the sunbeam!!
