Crime Lake Blue Hour

Taken nearly 3 weeks ago on my last wander out with camera.

Decided to go and try to capture sunrise, so arrived at just after 05:00, this was the first image of the day, and taken just after 05:15.

Crime Lake is halfway between Woodhouses and the Visitors' Centre and forms part of the Daisy Nook Country Park.

It resulted from canal works at the time of construction in 1794 . As built, the canal severed the course of a brook and a culvert was made below the canal to accommodate this. A landslip blocked this and the waters were impounded on the offside of the canal. The new lake and canal became one and the lake was officially known as Crime Bank Reservoir, but it is far better known by its later name of Crime Lake.
