Really incredible photo. Is this a single shot, or composite?

Thanks! This is a single exposure from a 210mm zoomed in composition. I saw the band of light hitting the distant house and moorland, with the Storr in deep shadow due to the storm above, so nabbed it quick as I could.

Amazing. That’s why I asked. This lighting is almost too good to be true. I’m sure it was only like that for seconds. Good work!

You’re exactly. Sunlight was scanning across the moorland, so I had to be quick.
