Blea Tarn and the Langdales.

I finally made it out of the house and beyond the gym!

Up before the sun in Winter is still hard work (5:45am) but we wanted to get first light at Blea Tarn. We made it (just) then had a wonderful few hours in the crisp cold wandering around the water looking for the best shots.

We were mostly undisturbed apart from a few groups of walkers and children who took great delight in throwing anything and everything they could find onto the frozen surfaces. It's startling to be composing a picture and see wood and rocks enter from frame left!

It was great to be out, the results were not as good as imagined but being there was the main thing.
