Leaving Thirlmere and heading north towards Keswick as the light is quickly fading I’m hoping to make it in time to see the last of the light on the high feels above Keswick. This afternoon is a totally unplanned and unprepared shoot. It’s more an exercise in being where I love, as opposed to a specific plan.
In my early photography days I spent a lot of time exploring as I called it. Getting used to places, learning about the light, how it falls and where are good places for certain times of day. I guess it’s paid off to some degree but largely today was an aimless wander against the clock. Chosing to see as much as possible, as opposed to one specific place as I’ve been doing the last year or two. Perhaps that’s because I haven’t been here since November and I just need a fix of this beautiful and inspiring land.
