This is spot on Alun. You can hear the silence (If you know what I mean), smell the clean air and I just want to be there.

Brings back great memories of this district, and I'm sorry to say I never visited this area. Will make it a definite stop next time, though.

gorgeous capture. was this a camping trip? or just a day's hike? how far from anywhere is this lake district? where does one stay when visiting?

@dj.tigersprout: Its a lovely quiet valley, there was one camp site. a few cottages witch is were we stayed because it was winter, cold and wet outside.

Stéphane from Near to BXL, Belgium
Beautiful and very nice composition. The depth of field is well chosen, just enough to see the whole beach without trying to go trough the frog.
