Lake District - Frozen Fells

Last week I had a couple of days walking in the Lake District with my friend Vic. We have done many Lakeland walks when the weather has been awful and the camera hasn't left the bag. But not this time. The weather for the first walk on the Friday was particularly good. Hardly a breath of wind, blue skies and a low sun that gave lovely golden light the entire day. Sadly there was no snow (we were hoping to get some winter training in for an upcoming trip to Scotland), but the normally boggy ground was frozen solid making for easy walking.

This first picture shows the 'forbidden' Wainwright, The Nab, in the middle ground, in the background a cloud inversion lies over Ullswater.
