Cool Cat
Decided to forego lying around at home as usual on Friday night and headed up to Nidderdale. I thought I'd give Swinsty reservoir a try for sunsets and reflections and such.
I think i'll put this in the Nikon D40/x/D60 Chellenge 'Sweltering'. After such a wet week there hasn't been much sun but i thought this would be a nice place to cool down on a really hot day.

This is why I like bikes so much. A lot of opportunity for the rider to make his/her ride different and special.
A cineraria is one of the only flowers to be a bright blue color. I'm a little obsessed with the color blue. It just instantly relaxes me.

Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most interesting - actually it's my second most interesting but my most favourited and most interesting are the same.
St Dyfnog’s Well is located at Llanrhaeadr, Denbighshire. The well, which isn’t signposted, is accessed from the church. A path running up the left hand side of the church follows a stream through the woods. The well is about 200 yards up from the church.
The village of Llanrhaeadr-yng-Nghinmeirch takes its name from the spring on the hillside which is now known as St Dyfnog’s Well. Llan=church and rhaeadr=waterfall.
According to tradition St. Dyfnog lived at the site of the well spring named after him in the 6th century, doing penance by standing under the torrent in his hair shirt belted with an iron chain. The festival of St Dyfnog is 13th February.
The well became known for its healing powers By the late middle ages this spring was among the most renowned Welsh holy wells, attracting numerous pilgrims and bardic poems in its praise. The strength of the spring was a notable feature. In the 16th century Leland noted “a mighty spring that maketh a brook running scant a mile”
Lhuyd (1698) records “a bath, much frequented, the water heals scabs, itches etc, some say that it would cure the pox.”
By the early 18th century it had developed such that Browne Willis refers to “the famous well of St Dyfnog, much resorted to, and on that account provided with all convenience of rooms etc, for bathing, built around it.”
Towards the end of that century Pennant visits, reporting that “the fountain was enclosed in an angular wall, decorated with small human figures, and before the well for pious bathers".
During the middle ages the well generated considerable wealth for the area, and the creation of the sixteenth century Jesse Window in the church was supposedly financed by revenue from the well, although there is an alternative tradition that it was relocated from Basingwerk Abbey following its dissolution.
The site’s proximity to St Winefride’s Well at Holywell was advantageous, since St Dyfnog’s was frequently included in the itinerary for pilgrimages to St Winefride’s.’
The buildings, including the reported marble linings to the pool, and statues have now disappeared, leaving just the stone lined remains of the bathing pool. Remaining too, however, is evidence of the landscaped woodland path created to the site in the nineteenth century including a number of small stone bridges which cross the stream that descends from the well.
