North York Moors
LAST SUNRISE of '25

Roseberry Topping, North Yorkshire, UK.

On a frosty New Year's Eve morning, on the final day of 2025, the sun rose in the south east, beneath a large swathe of cloud covering most of the sky.

However, a narrow window just above the summit of the Cleveland Hills allowed a piercing shaft of low sunlight to rake across the landscape, illuminating Roseberry Topping in a vivid orange spotlight.

This warm blast of light lasted only a minute or so before the sun rose higher and behind the cloud bank, drawing a veil of gloomy light across the landscape.
