I was up with the owls this morning to make a trip before the sun caused heat haze, I thought it was going to be bright by the forecast but went through a massive storm on the way there and there was cloud around dawn to the north and west when I took the first 2 arrivals at 6am, I then went off to catch the money lenders but the moist air caused a grotty haze on some shots and by 8.30 the heat haze was getting bad, here are some of what I got...
6am arrivals....
