Lake District

I have been photographing the Lake District for many years and have got to

know the area very well . I have been asked many times which is my favorite part

which is not a easy question to answer but if pushed I would say Wast Water is my favorite Lake and Borrowdale my favorite area.

Of course the Lakes is a very popular location for photographers and many excellent images have been produced

over the years from both enthusiasts and professionals alike.

Below are some of my Lake District images.

Wastwater below has to be my favorite Lake in the Lake District. Wast Water or Wastwater is located in Wasdale, a valley in the western part of the Lake District The lake is

almost 3 miles (4.8 km) long and more than one-third mile (540 m) wide. It is a glacial lake, formed in a glacially 'over-deepened' valley. It is the deepest lake in

England at 258 feet (79 m). The surface of the lake is about 200 feet above sea level, while its bottom is over 50 feet below sea level
