Full Moon at Merrivale, England
Full moon illuminates gently floating fog that has developed below the Great Staple Tor near Merrivale – an area in Dartmoor National Park rich with prehistoric monuments. Dominating landscape of today is the North Hessary Tor transmitting station built by the BBC in 1955. This is the second highest transmitter in the UK. This mysterious and often foggy landscape was an inspiration to sir Arthur Conan Doyle for his book about Sherlock Holmes - The Hound of Baskervilles.
