Pastel Sky at Perveril Point

I think every photographer has an image in their head of a shot they have always wanted to capture.  For me, I've always wanted to capture a shot of Peveril Point with a pastel colour sky in the background.  I arrived at Swanage, early, but the sky wasn't looking great.  There were stars, and not a cloud in sight as far as I could tell.  As I headed towards the location, climbed down the cliff only using the light from my headtorch, I could see a bank of medium cloud on the horizon.  As the time ticked nearer to sunrise, the clouds caught and changed colour from grey to a pastel pink and orange.  I slid the 6 stop in front of the lens, calculated my shutter speed, pressed the shutter release and.......... CLICK.  As the back of the camera burst into life, I managed to capture the image I wanted.  Sometimes, just sometimes, lady luck is on your side.
