Isaiah 10:33: "Behold, the Lord, the GOD of hosts, will lop off the boughs with a terrible crash. The tall trees will be cut down, the lofty ones will be felled."
Looking across the Naddle Valley from the Blencathra Centre. Thirlmere and Grasmere to the left , Borrowdale and Keswick to the right.
The northern lake district fells soar high above the misty Patterdale valley. I thought I'd give this one a go in monochrome, sometimes I think the mood can be totally transformed in black and white with the depth of contrast and tones.

Proud to announce that my picture 'Great Mell Fell' has been awarded WINNER in the BRITISH WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS 2023 Black & White Category, and will be included in the Collection 11 book as well as the touring exhibition. There were over 13,000 entries to the competition this year, so to have been chosen as a category winner is truly unbelievable!
Driving towards Matterdale en-route for a dog walk and maybe capture some snowy lakeland scenes. I just had to pull over and take this shot. The weather turned after this with squall after squall of hail on the high fells, not nice when its peppering your face. At least the dogs got a blast out... The snowy fells are Gowbarrow with Sheffield Pike in the distance.
The lone twisted tree up on Loughrigg Fell .. with the snow capped Crincle craggs & Bow fell in the distance.
I've still to process a few more photos from Kuer Fell in Akaslompolo. I enjoyed capturing the snow textures of the fresh snow we had had the day before. Another great thing about wearing snow shoes is I didn't sink on the deep snow whilst shooting , however my tripod did LOL :)
I'd never shot from this location before as the weather never really leant itself towards it but today with heavy overcast skies and the sun breaking through in parts I thought I'd give it a go in the late afternoon with the hope of getting the background fells illuminated if I could get a break in the cloud cover.
It was about a 30-40 minute wait to get this one and about 5 attempts as the clouds weren't playing ball, also a family arrived on the shore line followed by about 30 ducks who wanted feeding and decided to climb all over the jetty...
Eventually they moved on and the sun started to break through in bigger patches moving left to right across the fells with the cloud allowing me to get a decent part of the background bathed in sunlight against the dark clouds above.
It's a beautiful part of the lake and it wasn't a chore at all to just stand and wait here, excellent for a really good chill out spot, might start bringing bread and a fishing catapult to get rid of ducks though, they can spot potential food from miles away, and certainly aren't camera shy....
Again I was trying out the new Nisi filters, there is absolutely no colour correction needed on them at all, no colour cast and no dip in image quality, this was with a polariser, 10 stop filter and a 3 stop grad for the sky, absolutely superb, can't recommend them enough.
Holme Fell
One from last year on what was and still is my only walk up Holme Fell. Its a area that I see so many photographers doing so well with so many great images that I didn't feel too happy with the images I made on that morning. This is one I decided to process to see what it turned out like, hopefully it looks okay:)

Great Mell Fell is the perfect hiil but its neighbour, Little Mell Fell, aint half bad.
Trig point on top, just visible, to lean against whilst enjoying a long ponder.
This is the view from the patio of our holiday home in north Lancashire. The border with Cumbria is only a five-minute drive away, and in the distance, beyond the Lancashire farmland, we can see the fells of south-east Cumbria.
The Howgill Fells are hills in Northern England between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales, lying roughly in between the vertices of a triangle made by the towns of Sedbergh, Kirkby Stephen and Tebay. The name Howgill derives from the Old Norse word haugr meaning a hill or barrow, plus gil meaning a narrow valley. Wikipedia
Some nice conditions in the South Lake District this morning...

This is an image taken from the top of Holme Fell in the Lake District, England. Quite the effort to get up (and down) it but the views at the top are well worth it. In the middle you can see a little Tarn called Hodge Close with the Langdale Pikes in the distant background.
I often wonder if their dreams are as crazy as some of mine.
This image is from years ago. There were about four photographs of Calvin that I fell in love with, and this is the third of them. I'm sure the fourth will follow in a year or so... hah.
Happy Weeekends, all!
The Coniston Fells (and The Old Man of Coniston on the right) from near Torver in the lake District.
Fire in the fells - A wonderfully calm and serene dawn sees the Langdale Pikes lit up as though they are on fire, perfectly reflected in Blea Tarn.
The intense sunrise light catches the Langdale Pikes beautifully and makes for a magnificent scene across the wonderfully still water of the tarn.

Had a bad day in the lakes, low cloud, misty rain, couldn't find a decent image so went for a drive, ended up on Birker Fell and found this stunning view showing the cloud I had left behind.

A classic view looking across the disused reservoir (tarn?) on Holme Fell, across Hodge Close Quarry towards the Langdales. I missed this viewpoint on the first visit as I walked up from Glen Mary Bridge. It’s much easier and quicker from Hodge Close. Really windy even on the low fells. I was holding the tripod down.
