Early morning reflections of the Skidded Mountain Range on the glass like Derwentwater in the Lake District of England.

The Skiddaw range of the Lake District's Northern Fells seen at sunset. This is the view from one of the country roads just east of Silloth on the Solway coast. Whatever the weather, spectacular sunsets always seem to appear, often at their best after stormy weather! Being a somewhat breezy area, wind turbines are becoming an extremely familiar sight across Cumbria, Nikon D7000 Nikkor 18-200

Beautiful Skiddaw in the Lake District. They said it was fairly easy to climb but my legs surely disagreed! A perfect postcard for your Cumbria Holidays!

View from Derwentwater in The Lake District valley of Borrowdale, with Lord Island to the left, In the distance and beyond the town of Keswick is the Skiddaw Range of mountains.

The English Lake District is well known for its stunning views, but here is one that few get to see. The reason is that its from an outlying peak that is rarely visited - Binsey. This is the view back to Skiddaw from around the summit - or rather this is just one half of the view, for it extends to the whole Skiddaw range left of this. This version I have painted in oil on a 24x12 inch board. I have loosely interpreted the fields below rather than painstakingly copying them in order to keep the image fresh.

A badge of honour can be used to show you have accomplished something. Conquering a Lake District fell deserves such a badge!

It's a long hike but it's worth the effort for such a wonderful view...and this is not even the top!

Ashness Bridge, Cumbria Ashness Bridge is a traditional stone-built bridge on the single-track road from the Borrowdale road (B5289) to Watendlath, in the English Lake District, Cumbria. The brisge is at grid reference NY270196, and is known for being a fine viewpoint across Borrowdale towards Skiddaw, including views of Derwent Water nearby. It or its predecessor may have been a packhorse bridge conveying packhorse traffic from Watendlath to Keswick. Near the bridge is a small cairn to Bob Graham, who ran a round of 42 Lakeland peaks in 1932 (in under 24 hours), a record which was not equalled for 28 years. The Derwent and Bassenthwaite waters from Ashness Bridge. The area is owned by the National Trust. By Paul Tho...

This image, originally captured on film in the autumn of 1987, depicts the Ashness Bridge, in the Lake District National Park, in England. This is a popular spot for capturing images, but it has changed over the years as the view across to Skiddaw, the mountain in the distance, is now restricted by the abundance of trees that have grown. This image, therefore, represents an historical view. The bridge is a traditional Lakeland bridge, in that the arch does not contain a keystone. Within the park, there are many 'pack horse' bridges such as this, mostly built during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The fact that they still stand after 300 of more years is testament to their construction. Today, the bridge carries traffic up to A...

A view of Cumbria's Northern Fells given an impressionist finish. This is the view looking towards Skiddaw from just outside the seaside town opf Silloth. After a rather wet day the sky has cleared and the colours of sunset are appearing. This is one of Cumbria's quiet places - away from the Lake District's summer crowds
