Wonderful Hamish - both oblique and unique..where you on the high-ish ground in the foreground to be able to get this height?

A stunning photo Hamish. It makes me feel dizzy just to look at it. Thanks.

PAB, I'm not really on the higher ground in the foreground as the road goes through lower as a cut, the ground I am on is about the level of the main path up to Mam Tor between a third and a half of the way up the picture.

On the 25k OS map it looks like I am at around 470metres about sea level, the summit of Mam Tor is at 517metres above sea level (ordnance datum).
