For my first shoot of 2016 I chose the Troutbeck Valley for no other reason that I was heading over Kirkstone Pass to the Glenridding Gallery. I was hopeful I’d be able to capture an inspiring Troutbeck Valley Landscape Photograph today as the conditions we beautiful.

Here is a selection of the Troutbeck Valley Landscape Photography Prints I captured.

The Troutbeck Valley with Troutbeck Tongue above the Farm house. The higher fells of Yoke, Ill Bell, Froswick and High Street above covered in snow. Prints of this image are available here.

A tight 2:1 Crop emphasises the building within the Landscape.

A portrait take on the scene giving more perspective to the foreground. Prints of this image are available here.

The remains of the Drystone wall leading into the building. Prints of this image are available in my Gallery.

A Panoramic view of the surrounding area. Prints of this Panoramic Image are available in my Gallery here.

The sun eventually illuminated the building in the foreground as I was leaving.

Here you can see more of my Troutbeck Framed Photography Prints for sale and the the Kirkstone Pass here in my Gallery.

John Bell’ Banner, I wonder what that’s all about…..

I’ve put together a collection of my Lake District Landscape Photographs that are now available for purchase as Gallery quality framed prints here.

Looking over the Troutbeck valley from Kirkstone Pass. Some fine Autumn colours still around and looking great in the low Autumn Sun.

Over The Tongue and into the High Fells Frostwick and Ill Bell on the rights Stoney Cove Pike on the left.

One advantage of riding a motorcycle around the Lake District is the ability to squeeze into tight places for a few moments.

A derelict hut with a fine view up Troutbeck Park and onto the Higher Fells.

 It’s only earlier afternoon put the setting sun casts big shadows across the foreground.

Continuing on my way the next stop is Ullswater. I drove up this road to Docker last month and thought of returning on my bike.

A great viewpoint over the southern part of Ullswater.

Fantastic.

A quick visit to this little Jetty previously visited in moodier times.

The low sun adds great illumination the Autumn colours over Ullswater.

The target for today was to Catch Sunset over Keswick from Latrigg. The viewpoint is at the end of the path on the left. Hope I make it.

Little Man almost like a huge Sand Dune

Getting Closer.

The norther tip of Derwentwater and the sun illuminating Catbells.

Made it and what a great view for such a modest walk.

This is one way to enjoy such a fantastic day. I’ve always wanted to try this.

The guy on the right was on his radio guiding the Paraglider. Sounds like his first solo flight.

Fantastic Light
