An early start meant a pleasantly quiet crossing of Striding Edge and very few people on the summit of Helvellyn.
Northern Rail liveried Pacer 142091 will shortly depart wrong line from Hexham with a Nunthorpe bound service.
We spent a day out in the towns along the eastern end of the Tyne Valley Line and I managed to squeeze a couple of railway shots in between visitng the delights of the local pubs and tea rooms. Friday 22.4.16

I've recently returned home from a wonderful week spent in the Southern Uplands of Scotland; my first trip away in over a year. This was a picture I've had planned for a few years, but wasn't expecting to experience the conditions I was hoping for during this visit. However, with a promising forecast the evening before, I decided to set my alarm and head out early up to this viewpoint to capture the sunrise - and I certainly was pleased I made the effort.
This sculpture is one of the Striding Arches dotted around the summits in this area, and lies along the route of Southern Upland Way on the top of Benbrack. Look closely, and you can also spot the highest of the arches on nearby Colt Hill to the left.
A small gap in the clouds on the horizon allowed the early morning sun to appear for only a few minutes, before disappearing again. Those few moments were truly stunning as I watched the sun appear through the archway, looking almost like a heavenly gateway with the light beaming through.
First test out of my new X-Pro1 at 1600. Loving this camera. Found a deal on a beater body that I couldn't pass up. ;-)
The moorhen is a generally small-sized bird that is commonly found near large bodies of water such as marshes, ponds and streams. The moorhen is most commonly known for its small black-feathered body and (often) red, pointed beak. Moorhens spend their life on the water and have a number of adaptations including webbed-toes which aids the moorhen in both swimming and walking about on the slippery banks that line the water's edge. Moorhens are very sociable birds and spend their lives with other moorhens in a group known as a flock. Moorhens are omnivorous birds and have a diet that primarily consists of small invertebrates such as insects and water-spiders. Moorhens also eat larger animals such as small rodents and lizards and also pick at plants including berries, fruits and seeds.
