This pic was taken a few years ago while on a walking holiday
at Derwent-Water in the Lakes District of northern England.
I looked out the window of our walking lodge one morning
to see this most glorious sunrise.
The day quickly deteriorated into very cold and very wet
which meant donning wet weather gear before heading off
on a 12 Mile trek towards Cat Bells and the Newlands Valley
where we lunched in a field overlooking Little-Town
home to Beatrix Potters Mrs Tiggy-Winkle

What a brilliant place for a walking holiday. Sunsets and water are such a good combination. Great colours.
looking like a beautiful start to your day with a sunrise like that; shame it turned out a little dismal. Well at least you got your fabulous photograph early in the day!
Sunrises are always great, but they are usually followed by quite dull normal days...
Dramatic colors in this picture, very well captured! You are very talented with your camera!

I agree...wonderful colors in this lovely composition.
Wow you have done some exciting things. That walk isn't for sissies by the sounds.
It is beautiful there, we have been there a few years ago. Nice memories and a beautiful picture.
That is a good one.
I still think your photos of Adelaide and SA match anything in the world.
Beautiful dramatic start of a day shot!
You have to wonder how a day that starts so heavenly can change so drastically, it never ceases to amaze me! You were at least lucky to awake to this scene Dianne.
Perfect example of the old sailor's adage. "Red sky in the morning, sailors take warning..."
Sigh, one of the most beautiful spots , so beautifully captured here!
Such a beautiful setting for walking. As long as you have the waterproofs you can cope with anything the English weather throws at you.
Looks peaceful!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Gorgeous. Happy sky watching and a great weekend to you and yours.

What a beautiful, dramatic capture, Dianne!! I love the fiery skies and reflections on the water, the boats and the mountains! Terrific composition and colors! Awesome!! Enjoy your weekend!
Oh WOW ! Extraordinary colours - a fabulous capture which clearly brings back some great memories. Thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous shot...you almost fooled me into thinking it was a tropical island somewhere!
JUST LOOK AT THAT!!! I love the quiet scene and the coppery colors on the lake and in the sky. It is frameable, Dianne.
A lovely glowing sky.
Lovely sunset...

This is glorious!
That is such a beautiful scene. It is one place in the UK I would love to visit.
Gorgeous reflections and sky. Lovely capture, thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend!
I'd import the Lakes if I had any choice in the matter! I used to live and work there.
Nice picture.
