Pike of Blisco (height: 2304 ft / 702 m) seen from Side Pike, where I had the good fortune to meet one of my favourite Flickr phorographers, Terry Roberts www.flickr.com/photos/13922644@N05/.
He shared some excellent tips as we shot the sunset together over the Great Langdale valley.
Taken in 65:24 aspect ratio, which is something I've been experimenting with recently. It really suits a lot of landscape scenes and I like it a lot.
Stoodley Pike is a 1,300-foot (400 m) hill in the south Pennines in West Yorkshire in northern England. It is noted for the 121-foot (37 m) Stoodley Pike Monument at its summit, which dominates the moors of the upper Calder Valley and the market town of Todmorden. The monument is near the villages of Mankinholes and Lumbutts, West Yorkshire, and was designed in 1854 by local architect James Green, and completed in 1856 at the end of the Crimean War.
The monument replaced an earlier structure, started in 1814 and commemorating the defeat of Napoleon and the surrender of Paris. It was completed in 1815, after the Battle of Waterloo (Napoleonic Wars), but collapsed in 1854 after an earlier lightning strike, and decades of weathering. (Wiki)

The distinctive, serpent-shaped top of Causey Pike is seen here from neighbouring Scar Crags, to which it is joined by a lofty ridge.
The day had been very bright and unseasonably (perhaps even unreasonably) warm, but hazy, yet this is what happened as the sun went down to bed...
On the horizon are Blencathra on the left and the Helvellyn range to the right of Causey Pike, with Catstycam and Helvellyn on the extreme right.

Fleetwith Pike is a fell in the English Lake District in the county of Cumbria which reaches a height of 648 metres (2,126 feet). The fell is a well-known feature of the area as it casts an imposing presence over Buttermere and the Honister Pass.
Walking down the ridge from Crag Hill, over Sail to Causey Pike to descend by the steep drop from Rowling End into the hamlet of Stair. Then a quick walk to the pub in Swinside
All located in the English Lake District National Park

Who says you can't have fun while you work?
Today is errand day, so it's just me, my buddy
Diefenbaker, and the crowds of Pikes Market.
Even in the city nature finds a way, so in the
midst of all the hustle and bustle it's important
to celebrate all the little things.
High Pike is one of the most northerly of all the lakeland fells and is located in a vast area known as ‘Back o’Skiddaw’ which is quite unlike the rest of the Lake District – a lonely wilderness where you can walk all day and hardly see another soul. It’s a wonderful place
I like the bendy road bottom right, would have been nice to get an angle using the road as a lead in :-)

Great Langdale is a valley in the Lake District National Park in North West England, the epithet Great distinguishing it from the neighbouring valley of Little Langdale.
Langdale is a popular location for hikers, climbers, fell-runners and other outdoor enthusiasts who are attracted by the many fells ringing the head of the valley. Among the best-known features of Great Langdale are the Langdale Pikes, a group of peaks on the northern side of the dale. England's highest mountain, Scafell Pike, can be climbed by a route from Langdale. Langdale has views of, in particular, Dungeon Ghyll Force waterfall, Harrison Stickle and Pike of Stickle.
Langdale was an important site during the Neolithic period for producing stone axes, and was also one of the centres of the Lakeland slate industry.
Causey Pike is a fell in the English Lake District. It is situated in the Newlands Valley, 5 km south-west of the town of Keswick. Even though it has a modest height of 637 metres (2,090 ft) it is one of the most distinctive fells when viewed from the Derwent Water and Keswick area due to its distinguishing summit "knobble" which catches the eye.

Pike of Stickle, also known as Pike O' Stickle was the centre of the Neolithic Langdale axe industry, which dates from around 4,000–3,500 BC. The area has outcrops of fine-grained greenstone or hornstone suitable for making polished stone axes. Such axes have been found distributed across Great Britain.
Lots of editing on this one to recover sky detail (and convert it to B&W).
