Photo Challenge: Favorite Place

Derwentwater-Dawn

Dawn over Derwent Water, looking towards Skiddaw

The English Lake District, Cumbria

This weeks topic is you Favourite Place.  Now I find that incredible hard to isolate just one place….it is so difficult that every Wednesday I have for a number of years posted “Wordless Wednesday – Another Favourite Place”  and after some 4 years I have not run out of either a favourite place to share with you…. or discovered somewhere new that has made a big impression on me and demanding a return visit. All have made lasting impressions for all sorts of individual reasons.

So trying to pick just one I opted for an early morning, as dawn breaks and cloud lifts of Derwent Water revealing the mountains of Skiddaw beyond…. and that is a tough choice as the English Lake District in the county of Cumbria could produce many more Favourite Places.   But at dawn Derwent Water is a very peaceful place to be.

So this is my submission for this weeks Challenge.  You can see what others have suggested on this link:-

Should you feel inclined click on my Blog every Wednesday where I can share for more of my Favourite Places….. I hope they may inspire you to visit some of them.

    1. Thank you…… I cheated for the challenge as I had used it a little while ago in my Wordless Wednesday -Favourite Place. But as I said in the Blog I could have appointed many as my Favourite Place.. 🙂

  4. love it David…. but as judge once said – did you consider dropping to your haunches to shorten the perspective and connect the foreground to the view – no said I – the ground was wet = laughter

    1. Well I was in wellies and despite that my feet still got wet…….nearly lost the light and clouds as I had to wait for the ripples I created by wading in settled….and IF i could have shut the door at the end of the Lake I would cut out the breeze that unsettled the water. 🙂
