My two favourite places.............................................. to visit in England


Haydn's Pool last weekend..... frozen.
This is my local favourite place to watch wildlife.

Buttermere in the English Lake District ... on a beautiful sunny April afternoon.
It's a lovely four mile walk around the lake surrounded by high fells...
... and I have also walked all the tops.
This is my favourite place to have a holiday... and relax.

To see more wonderful images visit.

    I can well believe that both these places can exert quite a pull. A four hour walk for me would probably be double that but I still would love to circumnavigate that Buttermere of yours.

    Have a very joyful Christmas!

    I bet you can see a lot of wildlife in the grasses around the pond. Both places look just beautiful!

    Both lovely photographs of your favourite place Andrew; the second is especially majestic. That's quite some trekking to be done walking those hilltops too I'd imagine.

    Both of those places could pass for being right here in northern California. Are we not fortunate to have something like this to enjoy so close by?

    You are right, that takes the biscuit. A sunny outlook over Haydn's Pool and the Lake District, most amazing photos.

    I can see why these are two of your favorite places to go and visit with your camera in hand. I loved your brick barns yesterday, but these waters and landscapes are divine. Beautiful photography.genie

    I'm ashamed to say that I've never been to the Lake District. Mistake...

    Very lovely. The first photo looks a lot like lakes in Florida. Of course, we lack the beautiful mountains in the second photo.

    Beautiful place. I can see why it would be a favorite.

    They'd be my favorites too -- but that top one? Only in the summer.
