After Croft we made our way up to Oban where we would catch the ferry to the Isle of Mull, it was about a 5 hour drive so not something we wanted to do following an all day shoot and our ferry was not until the following day. We decided to head to the Lake District for the night and then we would drive up in the morning. As with all plans, they look good on paper. What we had to contend with was torrential rain and high gusts of wind.
It was raining at the campsite when we arrived so we went to the on-site restaurant in the hope that the rain would stop/lessen by the time we finished…we weren’t so lucky. We put up the two small tents and it took a while as we had to hide from showers and stop the tents from blowing away while putting them up. We got there in the end! I wasn’t convinced that I was going to have a good sleep as I saw lighting strikes in the distance and quite possibly heard some thunder! Fortunately, we survived and packed up the tents after a cooked breakfast 🙂
