A frosty morning on the shore of Derwent water at sunrise

The Lake District, Cumbria, England.

I returned to Derwent Water in August 2019. It was interesting to see the changes in the scenery brought about by the Summer season.

This is the 3rd of 3 good images taken on an early morning trip to the Lake District (UK) in November 1988 and it’s one of my favourite analogue images.

 

The image was shot on Ilford FP4 Film with my Olympus OM10, using a tripod to maximise the aperture.

A day spent at Derwent Water in the Lakes, the weather was grey all day!

As the light faded and the reflections broke I started to pack up my gear. But the approach of a pair of swans made me change my mind and I quickly set about finding a pleasing composition. Stressful stuff this landscape photography business!

I love the Peak in Autumn such beautiful colours and sometimes if you're really lucky the weathers good to you.

This is Derwent Water in the English Lake District.

 

Its the 2nd of 3 lmages I shot on a foggy morning in 1988 with my first SLR, the Olympus OM10 which I remember as a a sturdy and reliable piece of kit in the days before autofocus and digital. The image was shot on Ilford FP4. I have used adobe to enhance the highlights and shadows and generally bring the image up to date.

Water pouring over the wall of the Derwent Reservoir from a few weeks ago.

The view was terrific, the sunset pretty good but the midges where a pain in the backside.

Hope you're all feeling well after the festivities.. an early morning walk by the river Derwent would be a good tonic. For me, it'll be a stroll along the coast this afternoon :-)

Classic view of Otter Island in DerwentWater in the UK Lake District. 3.5 second exposure

We're spending a week in The Lake District where there is lots of beautiful scenery. We were lucky enough to have a cold but beautiful day yesterday for visiting Derwent Water.

Two stitch pano of this beautiful place and my last couple of frames prior to moving on, just as some clarity started to emerge on the islands.

 

Thanks in advance for any comments or favourites you may wish to make.

A very wet morning in the Lakes put paid to any hope of getting a successful days photography done. This was the only image to make the grade in a 10 minute window between the driving rain. Still have to thank Jim for the company and location choice as it will definitely be one to revisit. Maybe spring time!

The view from Keswick in the Lake District.

Beautiful day for a visit to Chatsworth, including a walk along Dobb Edge to Robin Hood, and then back through the park along the Derwent - and just enough clouds to add interest to the photos!

Long exposure at Derwent Water

Tranquil Derwent - Dawn on Derwentwater with very high water levels rendering the old jetty at Isthmus Bay barely visible above the surface of the lake.

 

The day's rich early morning light paints a colourful scene with Catbells, Causey Pike and the Derwent fells all gold set against a pastel tinged sky.

This secluded spot on the shore of Derwent Water was perfect to see out the day. I've a (more common than most) tendency to shoot in portrait orientation and love the sense of depth it creates. I love the Lake District and no doubt I'll be back very soon with locations already planned.
