A Wanderer's Photo Gallery
One of the things that gets me exploring Britain and Ireland is the prospect of bringing away some pleasing photos of my own making with me. Not only has that fostered the growth of an interest in hillwalking and cycling but it also has driven me to further the photography itself. All that has created the library of images from which the collections that you find here have been drawn.

St. Kentigern's Church, Great Crosthwaite, Cumbria, England

On the way to Keswick from Penrith, you cannot miss Blencathra as you pass Threlkeld but it's Skiddaw that's unmissable while you're around Keswick. Not only that but it has magnetic effect on camera lenses too as I found on my visits to the place. As if to prove that I took in other subjects too, here's one of the area's oldest churches, St. Kentigern's (he became St. Mungo when he went to Scotland) at Great Crosthwaite. The building dates mostly from the fifteenth century though parts are earlier than this with the twelfth century being cited. Notable features include the emblems of St. Kentigern in the churchyard gates and a memorial to local poet Robert Southey, after whom a street must be named in Keswick itself.
