Just want to draw attention to anyone interested on catchup BBC4  Sunday night  at 8pm a fabulous programme showing stunning scenery called Life of a mountain : A Year on Blencathra . what I would give to be able to get up there to photograph it ...a Terry Abraham’s special . The winter scenes are spectacular ,!

I think if I remember correctly the composition was mainly down to the number of people about, so you've got to pick and choose your shots based on who's around. Castlerigg Circle is a popular spot for tourists to visit purely for the surrounding vistas. You do need to be lucky with the weather whilst you're there.

How far is that from you then Rye ...?

Around 102 miles, luckily it's all motorway up to Penrith. It's still a couple of hours drive.
