Beautiful start to the day up on #glastonburytor today. @theavalonians #LoveUKWeather @bbcwthrwatchers @metoffice @TravelSomerset #Somerset #sunrise

Glastonbury Tor Going back to 23rd July, a soft mist drifting over the Somerset Levels, captured from the drone’s zoomed‑in perspective, making Glastonbury Tor feel almost within reach. Most people love these misty views, and this is one of my favourites. #GlastonburyTor #Somerset #Avalon #ThePhotoHour #Mist

Last one from last Friday’s sunrise at Glastonbury Tor. Slightly different angle. Wide view across the fields towards the Tor, first autumn colour in the trees, and St Michael’s Tower under a soft pink sky. #GlastonburyTor #AutumnColours #Somerset #Avalon #Sunrise #DronePhotography @PanoPhotos

Last Friday morning at Glastonbury Tor, same sunrise, another angle. The colours were incredible, especially the autumn tones coming through in the trees. #GlastonburyTor #AutumnColours #Somerset #Avalon #Sunrise #DronePhotography

Glastonbury Tor Taken yesterday at 07:36, this second image shows autumn slowly painting the landscape with its warm palette. The sunrise draped everything in a golden glow, highlighting the rolling fields, the hilltop tower, and the quiet charm of the countryside. A perfect reminder of how stunning this season can be. #GlastonburyTor #AutumnColours #Somerset #Avalon #Sunrise #DronePhotography @PanoPhotos

Just after sunrise this morning (07:49) at Glastonbury Tor. Autumn colours are really starting to show across the landscape, soft golds, warm oranges, and rich greens in the trees and hedgerows, with the fields still holding that fresh early light. St Michael’s Tower sits quietly on the hill under a sky washed in pink and lavender. A lovely start to the day in Somerset. 🍂 #GlastonburyTor #AutumnColours #Somerset #Avalon #Sunrise #DronePhotography @PanoPhotos

Glastonbury Tor at Sunrise While sorting through old pictures from May 2024, this one surfaced. Glastonbury Tor rising through a drifting sea of mist, the path winding upward as though still leading somewhere beyond the visible world. In those moments the old stories feel less like memory and more like presence: the quiet threshold, the place where ordinary light thins. Some landscapes keep their own time. This one remembered. #GlastonburyTor #Sunrise #Somerset #Avalon #Mist

Glastonbury Tor - Saturday’s sunrise One of my favourite views: the path heading towards the Tor, the fields, and the light only just starting to colour the countryside. Autumn is beginning to turn in the trees. Taken yesterday at 07:18. #GlastonburyTor #Sunrise #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor at sunset - the sky doing the talking. A panoramic from last night, taken about ten minutes after my previous post, when almost the whole sky caught fire. @PanoPhotos #GlastonburyTor #Sunset #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor this evening, a minute before sunset. Taken at 18:45, with the sun setting at 18:46. St Michael’s Tower stands on the summit as the sky turns gold, the last of the light still on the Tor and the fields below already cooling into dusk. #GlastonburyTor #Sunset #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor – Morning Mist, Part 5 A quieter close to the series that began on Monday 28th September. This fifth and final post is an interactive 360° view from the River Brue on the Somerset Levels, looking across toward Glastonbury, the Tor, and the land behind. Open it and turn in any direction. ⬅️⬇️⬆️➡️ momento360.com/e/u/bf3de9018… #Momento @PanoPhotos #GlastonburyTor #Mist

Glastonbury Tor – Morning Mist, Part 4 One more view from the 28th: the River Brue winding through the Somerset Levels while the cattle graze in the stillness, the Tor sitting quietly behind the haze. Just the landscape wearing its morning weather. The second picture is a zoomed‑in view from the first. #GlastonburyTor #Mist #SomersetLevels #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor – Morning Mist, Part 3 Stepping back for a wider view. Low mist still clings to the fields and rooftops of Glastonbury (to the left) while the Tor stands clear above it, the tower just catching the early light. The second picture moves in closer on the hill itself. #GlastonburyTor #Mist #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor – Morning Mist, Part 2 Following on from yesterday’s post, these images were taken a little later as the mist drifted across the fields and the Tor began to emerge. In the first picture, a swan slips in for a quiet cameo (can you spot it) while the second is a zoomed‑in glimpse of roughly the same moment. #GlastonburyTor #Mist #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury Tor - Morning mist. No drama, no sunrise fire, just the hill wearing the weather😊 #GlastonburyTor #Mist #Somerset #Avalon

Continuing on from Friday’s post (25th September). Taken at 19:04, after sunset, the Harvest Moon already on the rise. The last subtle colour of the day is still bathing the scene. St John the Baptist’s tower in the town; St Michael’s Tower on Glastonbury Tor 1.27 km behind it. Look closely and you can see people walking the hill. Same evening, later light: the sun below the horizon, the near-full moon in its place. #Harvestmoon #GlastonburyTor #Glastonbury #Somerset #Avalon

Avalon at golden hour. From this viewpoint you can pick out almost every landmark that makes Glastonbury legendary: • Glastonbury Tor rising on the left, crowned by the 14th-century St Michael’s Tower, once an island in a sea of marsh, now the most photographed hill in Somerset. • The stone ruins of Glastonbury Abbey sitting quietly among the trees in the middle of town - according to medieval monks, the burial place of King Arthur and Guinevere. • The soaring tower of St John the Baptist’s Church (left of centre) and the slimmer tower of St Benedict’s on the right. • A sea of terracotta roofs that have barely changed in 400 years, with the flat Somerset Levels stretching to the horizon. One hill, one ruined abbey, three church towers and a thousand years of myth, all in a single frame. #GlastonburyTor #Avalon #Somerset @PanoPhotos @visitsomerset @bbcsomerset

Glastonbury at sunset If you liked this morning’s shot, I think you’ll like this one even more. St John the Baptist’s tower catching a subtle shade of rose from the setting sun, with Glastonbury Tor rising behind it against a pink and lilac sky. The sky turned to fire not long after this. I hope you like it. #GlastonburyTor #StJohnsGlastonbury #Glastonbury #Sunset #Somerset #Avalon

Glastonbury this morning A different view today. I went over to the other side of the Tor for this one, St John the Baptist’s tower rising from the rooftops, with the hill and St Michael’s Tower standing quietly behind it at sunrise. #GlastonburyTor #StJohnsGlastonbury #Glastonbury #Sunrise #Somerset #Avalon
