Tons of Tors

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 17 March 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

My first Tor of the year, this is Hart Tor near Princetown off the top of my head; for those not in the know, Tor is Devonish for a bit of rock sticking out the top of a hill!

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

Well, this Tor looks a little precarious. Don't think I'd stand too close. Awesome landscape.

Very well presented and the wide angle has given a generous view to contain the rock under that sweeping sky.
