Castlerigg | Derwent Water | Lake District Images

Castlerigg would tempt the patience of a photographic saint.  As with anywhere in the Lake District, the weather and thus the lighting conditions change with amazing rapidity; that is part of their charm.  However, it also makes for somewhat challenging photographic conditions if all you want is a nice sunny picture with some fluffy white clouds.  I am a reasonably patient man and contented myself to wait until the moment was just right.  Unfortunately, again as is common throughout the Lakes, several dozen others had exactly the same idea, but with the apparent sole intention of either taking selfies right in front of the rocks, or else sitting having a lovely cup of tea whilst admiring the view they were so selfishly denying others.

Fume!!
