I’d originally set off and gone to Wembury for a walk but I knew a better sunset would be had on Dartmoor, this walk didn’t disappoint in that respect. Good views and an orange sunset glow around Brentor in the west lifted the spirits at the end of a hard day. I knew this would be a walk I would return to in the years to come to see this sunset again and again.

I’d skirted around Pew Tor and then took this photo looking up at it from Sampford Tor

Nice views from Sampford Tor although its more a collection of outcrops than a tor

Plymouth Sound is over there in the haze

Lovely vista from Pew Tor now with the sun casting some lovely light on it

Left to right, Cox Tor, The Staple Tors and Great Mis Tor

Looking west over to Cornwall

Heading back to the car and a quick look back to Pew Tor

Within a few minutes the clouds all formed up and the sun setting cast some fantastic light across them

Stunning

Golden glow around Brent Tor

Love a good sunset, this one from Prowtytown Rocks

Glad I came, my 3rd sunset walk of the year and the best so far.
