Cold weather and long nights can make it harder to GetOutside, but it also makes it much easier to catch some spectacular sunrises. Here's one from Derbyshire, taken by travel blogger Samantha Wragg.
This photo is from Pilsley - the town near Chesterfield, not the identically named village near Chatsworth House! The naked trees create dramatic silhouettes in the dawn light, and the frosty ground and mist add a slightly unworldly air to the landscape. Getting this sort of image takes careful timing, as the mist tends to vanish fairly quickly even in winter.
