    Atmospheric shots, good light and calm weather. Bliss! Was getting clean water an issue?

      It was a good day other than the very bumpy sleep! There are lots of burns which I either boil or filter, the peaty water tastes good. I try not to take downstream of farmland or buildings, neither of which was an issue here.
