Derwentwater

[Jon]

I had a brain malfunction on Monday evening, and set off for the lakes at 7.30pm - had a look at Bassenthwaite, but there were too many people for my liking (I may be a miserable so and so!) and ended up, as the light died, at Derwentwater's most famous jetty.

 

Took some snaps, watched the bats hunting and the fish jumping and was casually eaten alive by the midges :-)

I like all three and particularly the fact they are three different aspects of the same jetty.

 

Nicely taken and presented

[Terry]

Thats a nice set. Particularly like #2

[Leon]

I'd love to get to the lakes, never seems to hapen though.

 

amazing shots, especially no3

[Heather]

lovely pictures but the blue one gets my WOW vote

[Black Pearl]

Not very often that Bassenthwaite is busy, that was my lake when I lived in Cumbria and was my retreat when I wanted peace and quiet.

 

Derwent is very picturesque and you've done a crackin' job of capturing the feeling of a summer evening.

[Jon]

Thanks.  The shot I really wanted is a longer shot of the blue one, but there was a heath robinson floating crane moored beside the jetty, and an absolutely hanging tractor parked against the boards on the beach.  

To be honest its a lovely place to be at half past eleven/midnight on a Monday night, with or without a camera

 

BP - Thats why I went to Bassenthwaite first, I guess I hit dog walking time :-)

[NannyFerret]

I like all three, but number one looks so serene and peaceful. I would love to be sitting on that jetty as the sun went  down.

[annie]

beautiful set there festcu.

An EXTRA ....WELL DONE!......from me because with your first frame you have clearly demonstrated that you can still create a wonderful photograph af what has become a photographic cliche just like that bloomin' lone tree ont' Moors.

Your Blue shot is perfection.

FUJI

I kinda wish those steps(?) at the end wasn't there but I think you and mother nature have done a cracking Job with No.2 being a stand out shot 

[JohnP]

I like the first and last shots best... I just have to be different and not like the blue... 

[annie]

I love shot one and two as well...

[KateW]

These are gorgeous - very serene.

All three are beautiful, you can feel the stillness and tranquility. Love all of them!
