Derwent Water Sunset

Walked on 27/02/2011

I took the opportunity after a day in Keswick Love the Lakes to have a look at the sunset over Derwent Water which looked as though it may be promising. In fact it turned out better than expected and ended up being quite spectacular and I could not stop taking photo after photo, so this collection is of broadly similar views with ever decreasing light. Oh, just another one…
