Herb Riddle's photos

For a big lake fed by such snow and ice, I am amazed that this was the only river out. Not withstanding, still a splendid view point.

The right hand side of the lake when looking from the Chateau. The first pointed mountain being Mt Whyte 2983m, the Big Beehive in front of it with Lake Agnes behind that. Mount Niblock next at 2976 (The high peak furthest right).

Not normally the view that one takes on here but nevertheless a fine viewpoint. As you might guess the views out of the Chateau windows are even more breathtaking. Just behind me here is a bench for lake strollers to admire the views whilst having a snack perhaps. enjoy

Taken from Pwlleli beach, North wales.

I think this is' Russell', (Hunslet 901 built in 1906. A 2-6-2T.

She thinks we cannot see her, surrounded by ferns and with her camouflage on but..........perhaps its simply her necklace!

The Rockies between Banff and Lake Louise has many wonders. Here we are near Johnston Canyon. The trees, making a come-back after forest fires add a certain something to the deep ravine river.

A rather artistic view taken well above lake Louise, almost at the Lake of St Agnes. Part of the Banff National Park. A view to linger over and simply enjoy.

Otherwise know as 'Lake in the Clouds'. High above Lake Louise, we arrived here mere minutes before these delightful reflections were to disappear for the day. As can be seen, we are above the snow line and ice still covers most of this lake. The first 'tea house' of this national park stands close but unfortunate for us we had no time to explore nor sample it. The lake was so called 'Lake in the Clouds by the 'Stoney Indians'. The present name stems from two famous lady visitors: Agnes Knox -the first white woman to visit the lake and then Lady Agnes Macdonald, wife of Canada's first prime minister who visited a few days later.

Another look at this Idyllic scene. For us, a photographers dream.

Oh to be on a canoe on this lake. Such lakes exist mainly in dreams for us in the UK. Emealrad Lake sits high in the YoHo National Park on the Canadian Rockies if you too would like to stand here. The buildings to our right provides some accommodation and food for those luck enough to stay longer.

Just outside the town limits of Banff, Alberta, Canada, runs the mighty Bow river. Here it is with its guardian peaks.

A walk from my home, this only about 10 minutes away can be a splendid experience, even in Winter. Here we see the results of our first real snows of this 2015/16 Winter and a day after it was almost all gone.

Walking along the South banks of this fine Lake District Mere we stumble into a small outside cafe that includes a hire boat service if required. For me the photo location takes some beating and the coffee and cakes aren't bad either.

A great walk from the old town of Coniston in the English Lake District brings us up to the area known as 'Copper Mines'. There really were copper mines around here but now alas, holiday cottages take there place. However still a nice bit of landscape even in this poor Winter weather.

Seen on our walk from Fuengirola to Benalmadena.

A high view towards the inner town from our high-rise hotel. Seen here is the local express train to Malaga and its environs.

Seen in Fuengirola, Spain. This in reality is a rather small area that has been whipped up by strong winds and the nearby harbour walls.
