The first time that I may have glimpsed this scene, the day was a cloudy September Sunday and I was a short stroll around by High Sweden Bridge from Ambleside. What you see above is what greeted me on a February Saturday after that. Some may decry the cloudless sky from a photographic point of view but, without it, the surrounding countryside would have been as well lit as it was. That gave me a pleasing introduction to summits such as Loughrigg Fell and Heron Pike together with loftier tops lining the north side of Great Langdale.
