Since it rained continuously for four hours and 250 miles on the drive to Hocking Hills, I expected the falls to be a torrent, but apparently it had not rained in this area of Ohio.
This picture is taken from within Ash Cave, looking out to Ash Cave Falls. This recess cave is formed by differential weathering of the sandstone, as water and wind carved out the (relatively) softer stone at the middle and base of the 90 foot cliff, leaving a thick ledge as the roof of the massive cave.
The East Fork of Queer Creek falls over the cliff to a small plunge pond at the cliff's base, and continues on to Queer River.

Ashness Bridge is perhaps the most photographed packhorse bridge in the English Lake District due to its location and stunning views. This traditional stone-built bridge is on the single-track road from the Borrowdale road to Watendlath. The bridge is known for being a fine viewpoint across Borrowdale towards Skiddaw, including views of Derwent Water nearby.

A terrific sunset at one of the Lake District's most iconic attractions - Ashness Bridge. This packhorse bridge originally dates from the 18th century, but was later widened in the 20th century to make way for modern means of traffic. It is arguably one of the most visited, and most photographed, locations in the whole National Park.
I loved the large and lush ferns on this bank of Ashness Gill so decided to make these the foreground focal point leading towards the bridge itself. The sunset light was really lovely; casting some wonderful warm tones on the foliage of the trees beyond. The majestic mountain of Skiddaw can also be seen looming in the distance.

(PS...No blythes were injured in this series, especially sweet Ash, who signed a waiver when he arrived, to take on the girls of Jillybug Manor, with his owner, Angela's full blessings! Thinking of you in NC Angela...have fun & drive safe!!)

Much photographed Ashness Bridge in the English Lake District situated on the very narrow road to the tiny hamlet of Watendlath. The photograph was taken when a brief spell of sunshine lit up the Autumn colours of the trees.
………A cliché for sure but less often seen in B&W I thought! A stop off at Ashness Bridge on our way for a walk up Watendlath seeing as the bridge was quiet - normally there are hordes of folks busy snapping this old Packhorse bridge. Alan:-)…….

A last minute decision to head to Ashness for sunset because the sky looked like it was going to give us something nice.... and it certainly did!! And it just kept on giving and giving!
Great end to a great day out with the camera.....
Possibly the most photographed bridge in the popular and beautiful area that is the "Lake District".
This flycatcher nests from Central Texas to the Pacific Coast of southern Oregon as well as down through Mexico.
The Ash-throated FC favors woodlands, thickets, and desert habitats and does not need to drink water as it gains all moisture from the insects it eats. I found this bird in Terlingua, Texas in the desert where daytime temps were hitting 110 degrees Fahrenheit in late June. I took this image in the evening as this bird and its mate were perching on some rather gangly thickets near their nesting box.

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. It is at grid reference NY270196, and is famous for being a fine viewpoint across Borrowdale towards Skiddaw. It or its predecessor may have been a packhorse bridge conveying packhorse traffic from Watendlath to Keswick.[1]
It's almost impossible to go to the lake district and not get roped into photographing one of its many jetties, and around Derwent Water, there are eight of them, where people can flag down one of the ferries and get onboard for a trip around the lake.
Ashness Jetty is easy to get to, just park in the car park and cross over the road to the lakeside. We stopped off here twice last week, once on Monday morning and again on Wednesday morning. This is a shot from Wednesday when the sky was really moody and stormy, and although the wind had died down there was still enough to produce a bit of movement in the clouds.
I did 40 second exposure to accentuate that movement and also to flatten out the choppy water on the lake for a more artistic effect.

As much as I appreciated comments and feedback I would request no Awards or flashy gif comments, please. They will be deleted. Thank you.
The jetty was refurbished in July, so difficult to frame with the working structure.

My take on Ashness jetty, Derwent water, Lake District. I was hoping for a lovely sunset as the sun was due to set directly in line with ther jetty, but as expected in the Lakes, the clouds came in thick & fast!

I believe the climbing fraternity call this Mistress Slab, because it is so smooth on the other side it is a slippery bitch to climb on top of. I think I've called it Behemoth before as from the end it looks like the sharp bows of a massive ship, just the bows poking up above the waves, like Titanic. Whatever it is, this picture is not about that, but about the solitary mountain ash that has found the perfect niche to grow out of. I'm quite sure it will flourish there and grow to become quite a special feature of Dinorwic quarry as man's industry returns to nature.
This is a lane made from Fraxinus Excelsior, the European Ash. This tree is widely distributed over Europe and even over other places in the world. For the eye, it is a nice deciduous tree and often a valuable landscape contribution. Moreover, its wood is valuable and very popular for many purposes (there was even an ancient Volvo car with a car-frame made of Ash-wood). There is only one problem and that is its sensitivity for a particular fungus. If the tree is infected, it will accumulate branches without leaves and in the end it will die. The fungus is very much present in Belgium and the Netherlands since around 2012 (hence very recently). Nowadays, in rows of trees (not visible in this photo, but visible in the previous photo of this lane, taken from greater distance - flic.kr/p/2oJQL64), you will often see healthy trees and already affected trees.
However, some trees in some row’s will remain healthy even while most other trees are affected. These trees have a natural resistance against the fungus and can be used to breed new Ashes that also are resistant. With these techniques, when carefully executed, the Fraxinus Excelsior will stay with us in the landscape.
It's been a while since I posted anything - and I know that I don't have anything that could be termed "a following" - but, apologies. I had a minor heart op at the beginning of June, and am now starting to feel up to thinking about photography again (and am going stir crazy to get out and about again!), so here's an image that I worked on in the last few days, taken on the January trip I took to the North of England (which is when I realised all was not beating as advertised!).
Cumbria and Northumberland are truly wonderful places to go for photography, and this image was taken at a very popular location on the Lake District - enjoy!
