The head of the Wasdale Valley is surrounded by some of the highest mountains in England, including Scafell Pike, Great Gable and Lingmell. The steep slopes on the south eastern side of the lake, leading up to the summits of Whin Rigg and Illgill Head, are known as the "Wastwater Screes" or on some maps as "The Screes". These screes formed as a result of ice and weathering erosion on the rocks of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group, that form the fells to the east of the lake, towards Eskdale. They are approximately 2,000 feet, from top to base, the base being about 200 feet below the surface of the lake. A path runs the length of the lake, through the boulders and scree fall at the base of this craggy fell-side. On the north western side are the cliffs of Buckbarrow (a part of Seatallan) and the upturned-boat shape of Yewbarrow. Wast Water is the source of the River Irt which flows into the Irish Sea near Ravenglass.
Now this picture was taken while the flag was stable. The flag is a old dirty england flag resting upon some compost i found very exciting! Originally this photo has a dull boring background with twigs and other compost behind it, so i gave it a crop! i then slowley played with the rendering tools to give it the sharper more flying in the wind feel! as the flag was muddy it didn't really go with the theme so it went through a series of different coulour edits until i found this really cool sepia look!

Part of the 'Avebury, Stonehenge and associated areas UNESCO World Heritage Site', managed by both the National Trust and English Heritage, Avebury has long been overshadowed by Stonehenge. But access to its showy neighbour is now (rightly) pretty restricted and that makes accessible Avebury all the more charming. I took this shot to show the pattern of the stones and the Neolithic earthworks around them, one of which I am standing on, but it also shows that the village of Avebury with its fine Manor house, church and pretty houses, lies within the circles and several roads run through them. You can wander freely, touch the stones, though climbing is discouraged, and leave a crystal in a crevice to charge (if that's what lights your candle.)
Fuji X-E2 plus Mitakon Speedmaster at F0.95. There was very little light to work with (and using the flash was out of the question) which forced me to shoot wide-open and at a very high ISO number. Some images are very grainy indeed, but that is of no concern as long as the image can 'speak'.
