Elterwater and The Langdale Pikes

[Osbourne One-Nil]

Decided to go for a walk this morning but because I've had man-flu I didn't feel like lugging my massive frame up a mountain. So instead I headed over to Elterwater (in between Consiton and Ambleside) and had a nice 7 mile stroll taking in some pretty classy views. Plenty of hail showers, but also some nice sunny spells.

A bit hard to deal with the harsh light and to keep the camera dry.

Superb scenery, the last couple are a tad dark but still wonderful to look at, can't wait to get up there next week for a few days.

I was going to fiddle with them, but I'm too tired and need a Creme Egg. I think my photos are always a tad dark, but I like a bit of contrast and it seems to result in this. I blame the camera.

I wish I knew all the names of the fells. I think the first one is the Furness Fells and I know the last ones are the Langdale Pikes but the rest confuse me.

I've always got time for a creme egg, and if not I make time - I think the first and third pictures are looking toward Wetherlam which is around 760m, its a great walk from its top down the prison band and over to swirl how I would imagine it's going to be extremely cold up there over the next few days!

Very nice pictures, yes a tad dark, but that is near as damn it as your eye saw it surely. The tricolored sheep look like they belong in an art gallery :lol:

Breath-taking scenery. I like how the tips of the mountains have just a dusting of snow as well

Thanks Albion (not many Brighton fans about).

The tricolored sheep look like they belong in an art gallery :lol:

I can think of a better place to put them.
