Firstly, Jan & I would like to take the opportunity to wish everyone a very Happy, Healthy & Peaceful New Year.

Also to many of you who have posted with very kind, positive & helpful comments on the images I have posted over the years, all of which I thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart, they are so much an inspiration to me & very much appreciated, again many thanks to you all.

As said at the beginning of this sunset compilation running from 2012-2021, I will finish off with what I think is a truly spectacular set of images taken just before Christmas 17th December 2021, SUNSET OVER BASSENTHWAITE LAKE.

Shot late afternoon clear sky, spectacular deep sunset, calm tranquil water, in other words the perfect time of day & conditions for these shots.

I will still continue with sunset shots, but will interspurse with other various shots. It just remains to say many many thanks to you all, take care & again very best wishes to everyone.

First new pics of 2022 taken today 4th January Bassenthwaite Lake, same location as previous set from 17th December last.

Different weather conditions, sunny, clear skies but very cold Northerly wind, Choppy water, a good covering of snow on the distant mountain tops, all making for quite a contrasting set of images; Brrrrr!!

Took a little run out to one of my favourite photo spots yesterday morning 11th January, captured these shots of the morning sun burning the mist off the Southern half of Derwentwater Lake Keswick.

Note the Northern half of the lake by contrast was clear in glorious sunshine.

Colourful, Serene, Majestic Derwentwater late afternoon on the 14th January 2022 with low cloud hugging the mountain tops & colourful reflections being cast on the calm tranquil water.

PS, Just a little snippet of information,the island with the boathouse is called St Herbert's Island, apparently named after a priest/Hermit who is said to have inhabited the Island in the 7th Century.

Following a drive over Whinlatter Pass Nr Keswick on the 20th January, came across this gorgeous fiery Sunset.
1st shot taken from the top of the Pass.
2nd shot taken later dropping down the Pass, Sunset lower in the sky, hence the deeper red.
