One of the most beautiful and remote of the lakes which make up The Lake Distict of NW England.

Shun from Mühlheim am Main, Germany
What a light... The foreground looks so friendly and open yet the clouds are so dramatic. Great scenery with a lot of impact on the viewer...

@Lorraine: Thanks for your continued support Lorraine....things are a bit hectic for me personally at the moment so I haven't been visiting as much as I'd like...hopefully I'll get to time to catch up at the weekend.
@MadScientist: Thanks very much!
hugo poon from Hong Kong
Oh my... I love this even more... I should say this is one of your landscape shots that I love best!!! Can't tell you why - you know me well, I have never been "analytic" as long as photography is concerned; but must tell you that I couldn't take my eyes off this picture for quite a while!:-)
Best regards,
Hugo

well I never complain (or rarely) about the lack of clouds here in the UK!
Margie from Auckland, New Zealand
This is cool. A kind of foreboding atmosphere here. I like it.

@Margie: Thanks Margie....we had very varied weather last Sunday as you'll see from tomorrow's photo from the Lake District - completely different weather (and unusually for me these days a photo in full technicolor) :-)

Some many great landscape shots in your portfolio, but I lobe this one. You have as well as magical skills when it come to B&W conversion. I've never reached this level :-), and believe me, I try hard.
Keep on going, this is simply gorgeous !
