The Mining Hut is one of my most popular Lake District Landscape photos that I sell online and in various outlets across the Lake District. The photo was captured on the 8th April 2007 whilst walking Haystacks and the High Stile Ridge from Buttermere.
Here is a photo of my Buttermere Panorama shot on Canvas at 150cm wide and 50cm tall. You can see more details on this image in my shop by clicking this link.
Buttermere has to be one of the most naturally beautiful parts of the Lakes, this panoramic shot over Buttermere towards Fleetwith Pike, Warnscale Botttom and Haystacks is a classic. The late winter sun setting over Haystacks adds a warming touch in contrast to the ice on the shore in the foreground. Here you can read more about this Buttermere print and the Sepia version in my Lake District Landscape Photography Gallery.
The Mining Hut Photo below is one of my most popular Lake District Photos. It was taken in Spring whilst I was on a full days walk from Buttermere up to Haystacks and then over the High Stile Ridge which you can see in the distance to the left. Here you can read more about the Haystacks and High Stile walk and see more details about the buying a Mining Hut print
This lone Birch Tree on the Shore of Buttermere has been a popular print, you can see more details regards this picture with print options by clicking here.
The Western Lake District is one of the most naturally beautiful parts of the Lakes in my view. Its quieter and less touristy than Keswick, Ambleside and Grasmere. Buttermere and Wasdale are the main villages in these areas and great bases for several magnificent walks in this area.
Following up from a previous post regards Kendal College using one of my Buttermere Prints for the cover of their new Restaurant brochure, the brochure is now available here in PDF format. You can find more info regards the College and the restaurant here.
A recent survey has concluded that several iconic views in the Lake District have been voted best views in Britain.
Buttermere, my favourite place in the Lakes was top of the list with 18 percent of the votes. Derwent Water came second with 11 percent; Wastwater England’s deepest Lake came eighth.
The car company Chevrolet carried out the survey with 1,000 adults contributing.
Les Turton from Chevrolet said, “It is really great that more and more people are appreciating and acknowledging everything that our own country has to offer us. There is a wealth of beauty on offer to everyone within the UK and we only need to hit the road to find it.”
Again proof that the Lake District is regarded as the most scenic place in the UK. My collection of Lake District Photographs includes all the places in the top 10. You can visit my Lake District gallery by clicking here or specific examples by clicking on the locations above.
It’s great to receive feedback from customers especially photos of the final products. Many of my clients are purchasing prints for others, as gifts for birthdays, anniversaries etc. My latest client had a special request, she was proposed to on the summit of Coniston Old Man. An engagement present was required. A first for me. The 3 images below were chosen, 2 of the Old Man and 1 of Buttermere. Here’s to a long and happy future together. Continue Reading
Here it is. The biggest print I’ve ever done. 90×30 inches or 7.5 x 2.5 feet or 2.2m x .75m. There’s a good story behind this print too, the lady who’s bought it for her Hall in Kendal is redecorating especially to match the colours of this image. I’m going to photograph the installation when it’s complete.
