Must be one of the lesser-known parts of England. ;)

Armand, I'm not that brave. I'd arrived from the UK only a couple of days beforehand. My body clock was still shifting back: it was 1330 at home and I was feeling mid-morningish.

To Alan's or to mine, Kent?

Here's a slight re-working, using Nik Colour Efex to add a bit of contrast to the sky, the canyon floor to the right and the brightly-lit area to the right of the tree.
