Loughrigg Tarn from Loughrigg Fell, near Elter Water

This stunning National Park lies within the county of Cumbria, in the north-west region bordered by Scotland to the north, Northumberland, County Durham and Yorkshire to the East, and Lancashire to the south. It contains some of the most dramatic and scenic views in England, ranging from wide open arable land to the vast array of lakes, tarns and fells. There is always something interesting to photograph in the beautiful Lake District, and here we share them for all.

The Bowder Stone, also known as Bowderstone, is a natural wonder in its own right and a popular, highly photographed visitor attraction. Owned and in the care of the National Trust, this huge chunk of green-grey andesite lava, 18 metres long by 8.18 metres high, and weighing approximately 1273 tonnes, is believed to have fallen from Bowder Crag above its current position as a result of a massive rock failure where thousands of rocks tumbled down the slope below the crag. The evidence of this is provided by the rock type of the boulder itself, the rock type of Bowder Crag and the distinctive structural, cross-sectional features on both, which show they are an exact match. This suggests that the boulder, without doubt, came from the crag above. (read more)
