Keswick: Calf Close Bay

One of my favourite spots for photographs in Keswick is at Calf Close Bay, on the shores of Derwentwater. It is only a shortish walk form the town centre, but you get away from the mass of people, especially in the summer months. The view looks different every time I go there, no matter what time of the year. 
Not a lot for these two sheep to graze on. 
Canoeists on what was a cold day, with low cloud over the mountains.

Dornoch Cathedral

Dornoch Cathedral is in Sutherland, North East Scotland. It dates back to the 13th Century. 

The high roof gives the Cathedral an airy and light feel. One of quiet space. 

The organ pipes. 


There are some stunning stained glass windows. 

Look how high the roof is. 


The main door to and from the Cathedral.
