August in Cumbria

Cumbria, an area in the North West of England, most famous perhaps for the National Park of The English Lake District but having more to offer on its extensive coast, towns, moors and pastures. Here we see another side of the lake of Loweswater where trees and wild flowers full of bees cascade from the high Fells towards the lake. A very small portion of which, can just be made out almost middle left. See PiP
Enjoy full screen

PS - I shall take a break from these Lake District scenes for a week or so now and return to my 2014 Wonders of Mallorca selections.

Thanks Colin. Gald you saw the close-up too. Yes, these are strange times. One moment you can go almost anywhere, the next, not past your street. I hope too, that you do get to the Lakes. I look forward to your captures from there.

Hi Ed, glad it all worked out in the end. Wildflowers always add colour and interest that's for sure.

The beauty and perfume of the plain flowers, the dazzling green of the pastures, the forest and the bare mountains

Such a rich and beautiful landscape, captured in lovely light. I love all the fantastic colour tones on the the side of fells and down into the trees and fields - you describe it as a cascade, which is just perfect. The wild flower meadow is stunning. Definitely worth viewing large to see all the wonderful detail.

The close up image in the PiP is excellent too! I think this is my fave of your Lake District series so far..!!

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Keith you have a rival now with your beautiful descriptions of my photos, in Judita (above) :) Funny enough I did not think this photo so special at all but that is besides the point as long as it pleases you my viewer.

A little break now away from this West Lakes collection as I continue for a time my Mallorca one. I shall get to the next day and lake in a week or so. Please hang on in there!

Best Wishes, Herb
