One of my favourite views in the Lake District. The summit crags on High Stile in the western fells. Taken on a moody and bitterly cold morning in November 2024. Shot on one of my favourite cameras ever, a Fuji X-T3.

Another shot today from Troutbeck Tongue a little after sunrise yesterday morning. Some decent light and cloud sitting over Windermere in the distance meant that I had pretty nice conditions for about 20 mins though. Early start but back home for a brew by 10am. Not a bad start to the week!

Moody afternoon on the walk into Troutbeck Tongue on Saturday evening just before the rain hit. Worth it though! #landscapephotography #lakedistrict #outdoorphotography #nikon

Troutbeck Tongue yesterday morning catching the sun from the south east as murky dark clouds sit to the north. Quick blast out was a bit soggy underfoot but we were treated to some brief moments of impressive light as the sun peeped through the thick clouds.

Woodland catching the late evening light on Monday on the hike up to High Rigg and back from the A591 near Fisher Place. Simply stunning views for really very little effort here in the Lake District! . . . . . #lakedistrict #wainwrights #hiking #mountainviews #cumbria @ciceronepress

Great Calva in the northern fells of the Lake District. A modest peak but one that stands out once beyond Skiddaw and Blencathra. Here seen in its full winter coat at the start of 2025. . . . . #lakedistrict #wainwrights #hiking #mountainviews #cumbria

Up on the summit of Lonscale Fell yesterday afternoon as the light faded on a cold but still day in the northern Lake District. Skiddaw and Skiddaw Little Man sit in the distance. . . . . #lakedistrict #wainwrights #hiking #mountainviews #cumbria

Atkinson's Monument close to the summit of Caudale Moor in the Far Eastern Fells in the Lake District on a cold, crips winter dawn. Red Screes sits in the distance to the right of the frame. #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #landscapes #mountains

Looking forward to spring evenings like this. Out fell running with a small camera in the quieter fells of the northern Lake District such as Bowscale (as seen here, with Blencathra in the distance). Anyone wants to join for such runs soon, just drop me a line!

Climbers on Napes Needle (Great Gable) making their way up to the summit on this classic of Lake District rock climbing. Moody morning with the mist . Had to do a spot of light scrambling up through the crags to get this shot, but certainly worth it. #cumbrialife #osmaps #lakedistrict

Three hikers heading down from Esk Hause, towards Angle Tarn and Rossett Pike as the light began to fade yesterday afternoon over a wonderfully snowy Lake District. Shot on a hike up to Allen Crags from Langdale.

Looking to Black Sails and Wetherlan from Swirl How in late summer of 2024 in the southern fells of the Lake District. (OM-5 + 8-25mm f/4 Pro). . . . . #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #omsystem #coniston

Blissful morning views back in January, up on High Pike near Ambleside. Soft morning light and deep snows following a 6am start from the house was certainly worth it. Little Hart Crag sits in the distance (OM-5 + 8-25mm f/4 Pro) #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #omsystem #winterwonderland

Grey O'Dwyer @grey-odwyer.bsky.social · 14/12/2025
Certainly one of the finest climbing spots in the Lake District, Gimmer Crag on the southern face of Loft Crag in the Langdale Valley. Trad team here working their way up the middle sections of the route. You'd be hard pushed to find a better belay ledge than this #lakedistrict #cumbria #landscape

Dusk setting over the southern fells of Brim Fell, Coniston Old Man, and Dow Crag in late summer of 2024. Shot from the upper slopes of Grey Friar. Head torch and run back down to Coniston village was a fun end to this outing. . . . . . #lakedistrict #cumbria #landscape #omsystem #coniston

Looking to Great Moss in Eskdale on an overcast day. Taken from Scar Lathing with Pen, Scafell Pike, Mickleden, Broadstand, and Scafell standing out. One of the finest views of the Scafells? Probably. . . . . . #lakedistrict #cumbria #landscape #omsystem #scafellpike

Grey O'Dwyer @grey-odwyer.bsky.social · 07/12/2025
One from earlier this year up on Blencathra on the way along Halls Fell - the finest route up to any summit without a rope? Perhaps! Always looks far better with its lakeland winter coat on. . . . . . #lakedistrict #cumbria #landscape #omsystem #blencathra

Last light of the day catching an outcrop of trees on Ennerdale Water with Pillar and Black Crag towering above. Shot back in spring on a shoot up to Steeple, Haycock, and Caw Fell.

Pretty much as nippy as the Lakes get - the summit of Helvellyn with winter doing its thing. About -20 as two hikers take a moment at the summit shelter before heading off into the thick clouds. Not a place to linger for too long but it was pretty hard to resist this shot. #lakedistrict #helvellyn

The highest human in England for a wee while as a hiker enjoys a pretty quiet summit of Scafell Pike on a very chilly day in the Lake District. #lakedistrict #cumbria #hiking #adventure #winter

Moody shot of Pen overlooking the Eskdale valley, catching just a sliver of light on a pretty grim afternoon. A day for picking out details on the telephoto lens rather than shooting more conventional landscape images. #lakedistrict #cumbria #nikon #hiking #mountains #eskdale

Moody view of Scafell and Broadstand taken in the last of the sun on Saturday evening in Wasdale. Sweeping up a few final shots needed for the new edition of Great Mountain Days - this is likely to feature in this major guidebook to the Lake District #lakedistrict #cumbria #landscape #nikon #wasdale

Shot today from a blast up to Lingmoor Fell to grab some shots I needed for the new edition of Cicerone's Great Mountain Days. I have plenty of snowy images of this modest fell in the Lake District, but it was nice to collect one with late summer heather #lakedistrict #hiking #landscape #omsystem

Shot from yesterday evening's shoot to Mellbreak in the Western Fells of the Lake District yesterday. Mellbreak is always tough to shoot late in the day, at least for me, but certainly felt that this perspective with St. Bartholomew's Church in Loweswater worked well. #lakedistrict #cumbria #hiking

No posts for a wee while with work being the annoying thing that it is. But thought I'd post this shot this morning from a wonderfully blissful dawn up on Low Pike looking south towards Ambleside and Windermere beyond as a hiker makes his way down #lakedistrict #cumbria #hiking #dawn #landscape

Moody morning light over Buttermere, High Crag, and Haystacks earlier in the week meant the world looked better in monochrome. Not the weather that was promised (when is it ever?), but nice to be there for first light #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #hiking #buttermere #fells #landscape

Few more images today from the Slovenia Alps back in August. Such a fantastic week in the mountains from our little base in Mojstrana. Given that I had been on crutches 20 days before heading out due to a fell running injury, I was utterly stoked to enjoy this setting - albeit it pretty slowly!

Morning light catching Catbells yesterday around 8:30am up on Castle Head. Was trying to decide on a summit shot yesterday morning or the portrait of the fell - being a little late out of the house the portrait shot won and came out quite well. #lakedistrict #cumbria #hiking #wainwrights #nikon

A view that is so familiar to me that I often take it for granted - the higher peaks that form part of the Fairfield Horseshoe (Great Rigg, Fairfield, and Hart Crag). I often use this route as my fell running round each week but had to grab a shot of this back in the summer given how moody it looked

Moody view of Cofa Pike that connects Fairfield and St. Sunday Crag in the eastern fells of the Lake District. One of my favourite spots in this wonderful little national park that I get to call home! 🎉 #lakedistrict #cumbria #fells #hiking #landscapephotography #mountains #wainwrights #adventure

Moody morning at Goat Water on Saturday morning shooting Dow Crag for the upcoming book. As always, doesn't matter what time you leave, you're always 10 mins too late to catch the good light. But the murky nature of the fell kinda came through here...sort of. . . #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights

Not quite the sign you expect to see in the fells of the Lake District - wandered past this with some sense of confusion back in the summer on a shoot around the fells of Mardale Head. This shot is looking down from the path up to High Raise from Wether Hill in the far eastern fells. #lakedistrict

One of those magical moments from a few years back now - shooting on Hallin Fell, with my focus on Ullswater and the fells beyond. Just as I was getting ready to pack things away for the evening I turned around to this sight. I so often forget to look behind! #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights

Looking to Great End in early autumn from the summit of Green Gable - one of those odd afternoon's out when I saw zero other people on the fells. Esk Pike making an appearance in background, which is nice. #lakedistrict #cumbria #fells #wainwrights #hiking #landscape #photography #omsystem #om5

A view today from the far eastern fells of the Lake District, with a bit of a panorama of Angletarn. Not the greatest conditions for shooting - light wasn't being terribly cooperative. But certainly a tranquil spot to spend some time. #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #landscape #photography

Two hikers stopping for a quick snap up on Grisedale Pike in mid-summer 2024. Somehow these fells around Newlands always seem to have pretty dry paths, no matter the weather. Certainly on of my favourite spots in the Lakes. #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #hiking #adventure
