We had much difficulty finding overnight accommodation at Keswick in the Cumbrian Lake District during our weekend stay and decided to take a chance by choosing a farm stay at Gill Brow Farm. The farm was a little difficult to locate even with the help of our little GPS unit and the roads leading to it weren’t exactly easy to travel. It was fortunate that we stayed there though, for on our way to Lake Buttermere the next day, we passed by the beautiful landscape of the Newlands Valley. I caught this picture stopping at one of the rest areas along the route to Buttermere.

More pictures from my recent trip to the UK… We got up and got out to Lake Windermere early this time round to catch some photography. The lighting we got wasn’t fantastic, but the misty mood was certainly attractive. We hung around and got quite a good number of shots. This is one of them that I like 🙂

We stopped over in the town of Tynemouth after our visit to the Lake District. When we arrived, we already caught some fantastic pictures given the dramatic cloud patterns we encountered (I’ll post some of these pictures in due course). No regrets staying the night over subsequently, for we had a glorious sunrise the next morning. This is one of my favourite shots from that morning 🙂
