View of Settle from Giggleswick Scars

I've never understood the attractions of golf as a game and have no liking for the way the sport uses and abuses open land. However, were I to indulge in the sport I imagine it would be harder to find a pleasanter place to do it than the 9 hole course at Settle & Giggleswick Golf Club. It's the setting, below the geological fault line of Giggleswick Scars that makes it so different. On the day I took this photograph, from the Scars looking south, the low cloud of a temperature inversion was slowly clearing, adding interest to my shot into the sun.
