Derbyshire as a county is one of contrasts, beauty and delights. For it is a county as well that has a plethora of various landscapes, from limestone dales that form The Derbyshire Dales, through to the more dramatic heather clad moorlands and outcrops of gritstone, otherwise known as The Peak District. But whilst The Derbyshire Dales and The Peak District are also known for being busy with touritsts, Derbyshire itself also has some places that are a little bit more, "off the beaten track."
And it was a few years ago that I was visiting Ashover, a delightful small village located within The Amber Valley, an area located between Chesterfield and Alfreton along with Matlock, and after a delightful walk around the village of Ashover it was then time to head to Ashover Rock, located just above the village of Ashover - a place of delightful views across The Amber Valley and Ashover down below, towards Chesterfield and Sheffield to the north.
But as I was looking at the view, I was also observing the light and the way the landscape was, for the sun was just beginning to set, and down below I could see the village of Ashover, I could also see a composition, with the gorse bush providing a yellow/golden element, the village down below and a golden like sky in the distance. I just had to capture what I had seen, and below is what I had managed to capture.
