Around Coniston

This morning I took a circuitous route to the shop in Bowness by way of Coniston along the east side of the lake and up to Tarn Hows to give Casper a run. I was fortunate enough to be greeted with a great sunrise over the Coniston fells giving that lovely golden hue with some great reflections in the calm waters too.
