On arrival on the heath, it initially seemed like a normal, pleasant evening heading towards sunset.18:49:44
Rather interesting and dramatic clouds though.18:50:35
The usual view of the bandstand.18:52:35
As I headed up to the top of Parliament Hill though, I started to notice a sort of mist creeping up the slopes.
18:55:02
Little wisps of mist here looking over towards Highgate. Rater picturesque this evening.18:55:24
The mist then seemed to creep up the hill a bit more - perhaps combined somehow with the fading light.18:55:40
...and it started to become very atmospheric.18:58:50
Here I am sat on a bench amidst the mist.
18:59:43
Slightly grey looking down towards the centre of London.19:00:02
Other people had clearly stopped and noticed the pleasingly picturesque quality of the views this evening.19:05:06
Then as the sun started to set, it started to get really quite misty.19:06:43
...and then couple with that little bit of fiery pink of the sunset, it made for a great effect.
19:07:25
I particularly like this photo with the chap who helped to frame it somehow.19:08:11
Video of the strange scenes atop Parliament Hill this evening.19:09:49

19:10:17
Really very atmospheric - I was so pleased to have been here for this moment.19:10:21
19:13:42
19:13:46
19:16:50
19:25:41
I decided to go for a walk and see how the rest of the heath was looking in these unusual conditions. I like this glimpse through the canopy of this oak tree.19:25:47
19:26:25
The woods, looking pleasingly crepuscular, although not much sign of the mist here.
19:28:05
The barrow. Only slight hints of the mist here, but still adding a bit of mystery to the scene.19:29:00
19:29:39
19:30:11
Looking into the barrow.
19:31:22
The view from the barrow - with a bit of mist.19:31:26
Somebody had left one of those rental bikes here.19:46:04
Video of the misty hillside.19:49:52
19:50:09
Me enjoying the gloom on my favourite bench by the barrow.19:50:19
19:55:26
Not sure why this was necessary.19:56:48
The bike still there.
19:57:20
Getting a bit dark now.19:59:30
20:00:10
Night time video of the heath.20:03:01

Back atop Parliament Hill.20:06:14

Good night Hampstead Heath!
