A beautiful and nice and peaceful part of the Lake District, well it is at this time of day... Early morning...... very early morning....., wellies on and in the lake with the long lens on, the sunrise hadn't been one of those amazing ones that you crave for but it isn't always needed if you alter your requirements for the scene...

After shooting wider versions of this I've just found this image which I like as much as the rest, tight in on the little isolated boathouse with some great light cascading in from the East allowing for a long enough exposure here to render loads of detail (no filters needed), there's a lone duck fishing about for food in the reeds in you zoom in.

All about the light.,

I've just hit 7.5 Million views with this upload, a massive thank you very much everyone.

An idyllic still morning on Rydal Water in Springtime.

The sunrise colours were very muted this morning but stil really pleasant, they really didn't last long at all, I've shot this location a good few times now and you can see the sky changing very clearly to your left as you face this way down the lake, might be something, might be nothing, you never know what you are going to get... one thing that doesn't change though is being stood in the lake with your wellies on at dawn as the sun comes up is always magical regardless of what image you get, (or don't).

The water was perfectly still this morning so I had to be the same stood in the water so as not to cause any ripples on the surface, falling in never helps either, I've got form for such things....thankfully that didn't happen on this trip...
