The view from Birkhouse Moor over Ullswater to the Pennines, Lake District, Cumbria. I think what attracted me most to this shot was not so much the far reaching views, but the way the pastel sky and foreground sandwiched the lake and fells #LakeDistrict #Cumbria #LandscapePhotography
A pastel coloured, yellow/orange sky and foreground sandwich the middle ground which is made up of dark fells with a grey/white lake leading into the scene. The foreground is frosted and overall the scene is one of calmness as the pre-dawn light begins to illuminate the fells

A view of the village green and duckpond at Caldbeck. In the foreground is grass with a group of ducks on it with a large bare tree behind them. 
On the right is part of the duckpond.
In the background are trees and a few white painted cottages.
