Beautiful picture. Bravo

That's such a cool photo! Love it. You've posted several excellent and representative pics of an area I know very well, and I'm glad you had such nice weather. Please post some more.

Thank you Razumovskaya! You are right, it is on Crummock Water, but the region is called Buttermere as well, so it isn't quite wrong. Greetings, May

Very nice!

You can taste the spray and feel the wind trying to take your hair off in this one, Roger! Terrific, thanks!

very silence

Hopefully even better with blue sky. Making this kind of picture is not so difficult. Take a tripod, have your camera on B (or 5 seconds exposure) and shot one picture every 5-10 seconds during a Thunderstorm. After 200-300 pictures the chance to get one decent or excellent is very high. Digital camera of course recommended !

Thanks, jimble. This pic was taken the summer immediately before the Remembrance Day bombings; it was the 1st view I'd ever had of Enniskillen and it impressed me with its peacefulness. My homeland too, actually. I'm Ulster-born but now live in England. So pleased you enjoyed the shot.
