Dusk at Coniston Water, Lake District, England
Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
We stopped at the northern shores of Coniston Water yesterday evening to be dazzled by the peachy pink dusk. There was a rain shower just as the sun was setting and the lake took on a distinctly peachy hue, partly due to the reflection of the red branches of the silver birch trees at the lake side.

There’s a wide choice of accommodation, restaurants, cafes and pubs in the town of Ambleside, which lies 8 miles from the north of Consiton Water, on the northern shores of Lake Windemere. Ambleside makes a good base for seeing the Lake District due to its central location. You can use the price comparison facility below to find the best deals on hotels in Ambleside,

It was an amazing light, Emily. I often find that the best colours are after rain.
