Hindscarth Beyond Derwent Water
This was taken at Derwent Water the evening before my previous post. Derwent Water was not as peaceful then as it was a pretty windy and chilly afternoon. I concentrated my efforts on the mountains beyond, particularly when the sun broke through the low hanging cloud cover and lit the sides of the hills in dramatic fashion. I didn’t know exactly the name of the hills and mountains I was taking then, but thanks to Google Earth, I figured out that the mountain that is mainly lit is Hindscarth, which lies between the valleys of Buttermere and Newlands, in the north-western part of the English Lake District. Ah… the wonders of modern technology … 🙂
