A journey in photographs around the North West of England. Mainly Cumbria and North Lancashire, but sometimes further afield. What you see is what I see. No photographs are enhanced or altered in any way.
It was a wet, overcast and dark day, when I took this set of photographs in Grasmere. Hence there were not too many people to be seen! |
Look how dark it was, and this was at midday! |
Heavy rain clouds overhead. |
The main road through Grasmere, almost deserted. |
