Low Cloud

The light was quite interesting early on (11/1/12) so I took a couple of shots -

Well, I tried to resist it

But for some reason the camera kept calling me until I took another dawn photograph

Moonlit Morning

Went out for a few photographs before the Sun popped up today, quite enjoyed the long exposures with the clouds moving, would have been nice to have had a clearer view of the hills as well though.

Not sure what caused those two lights in front of the cloud on this last photo, didn’t notice anything when I took them, but then I wasn’t looking up there

A brief stop

Coming down Kirkstone Pass after a failed shopping trip and we decided to pause by one of the waterfalls as they were looking rather impressive after the amount of rain we’d had recently.

….watched the sun rise, then went for a wander by Long Meg and her Daughters.

I do wonder why though ~~people~~ scum visit places like Long Meg and feel the need leave all their McRubbish behind -

And finally a couple of misty shots from the journey home

Into the valley

A few photographs of the dawn, then one of the cloud on the hills a couple of hours later

Patches of light

A trip west and a couple of photographs from Bassenthwaite and Caldbeck Common.

Out and About…

Today we had a run out and visited a few lakes and fells, some we’ve seen a few times recently and a few we’ve not seen for years.

First of all we stopped near Crummock Water and wandered up the side of Cinderdale Beck.

Looking back from the beck we spotted the Moon high above Melbreak

We also spotted a couple of unnamed fell tops

After Crummock Water we stopped off by Loweswater for a quick photograph

After this I had intended taking some photographs looking out over the coast and towards Scotland, but I was shocked by the amount of wind turbines cluttering up the land and spoiling the views.

From here we popped by Ennerdale.

Finally we stopped on the way home to look back towards the fells as the light was looking nice

All in all a nice morning out and about in the Cumbrian hills.
