I was staying in Keswick and the sky was looking promising but where to go... I ended up heading to a nice spot near Friar's Crag but some kids were smoking pot and ruining my comp! I made a last minute call to run back in the car and head to Ashness Jetty. I lost a good 10 mins of light and after to chatting to a lad packing up he said it had been a good one! Hung around for another 30-40 mins snapping away as it was so peaceful (despite the midges!)

Anyone interested in the technical details see below...

Canon 5D Mk3 & Canon 16-35 f-4L
55 seconds (Bulb mode), f-6.3, ISO 100
I think I was using a Hoya ND 400 filter (8.5 stops) and a Lee 0.6 ND Grad.
