We have the first Autumn storm of the year coming through, not dangerous but 80mph winds with rain but not heavy rain and we now know that it is the rain that often does the damage.
First image taken looking into Borrowdale before a fairly destructive storm hit. I don't know if I was holding the camera still or using the tripod to stop me getting blown over.
The image below was taken in March last year as a snow storm swept in. The lake is Derwentwater, the same one that provided the calm smooth images.
We do not have Aspens here but silver birches can be lovely the next image shows a little stand of birches in the Spring with the first growth bursting out. If you time it properly the sun hits the trees but leaves the hill behind it in shadow.
Lastly silver birches just in the first week of budding. Again backlit trees against a dark hillside. There are at least 2 types of silver birches with totally different shapes.
I hope that you are still enjoying the images from here. Ken
