Southern Scotland has valleys, Northern Scotland, the pretty bit, has Glens (Narrow steep sided valleys) and Straths (wide valleys). Northern England has Dales. Here are a few.
Glencoe probably Scotland's most famous glen

Glen Strathfarrar an Oxymoron

Glen Affric the prettiest, in my opinion

Lastly from Cumbria: Deepdale which looks very Scottish probably because it is glaciated like all of Scotland's glens. Ken

Dan, very nice series of seasonal valley landscape images from you’ve presented—I favor the “Gates of the Valley” and the “Eastern Sierra” images but all are very well captured.
