Gate to Alcock Tarn A wider view from the gate half way up to Alcock Tarn. Both gate posts are in reality quite upright. The distortion to the right post is caused by the extreme angle of the lens 10-20mm Sigma which equated to 16mm in full frame (35mm) terms. But it is a superb lump of glass.

Grasmere from Alcock Tarn track.....again!!!!! Grasmere again, from the track up to Alcock Tarn. It was hard work getting up there so you can at least share in my images if not the pain of capturing them!

Grasmere from Brackenfell 3 Almost halfway there now. Alcock Tarn here I come, and yes the track is as steep as it looks. In fact steeper in parts, and yes it is a long way down!

Grasmere from Brackenfell 5 Grasmere and surrounding area yet again. No apologies as it is such beautiful area. A little closer to Alcock Tarn now. The top end of the Mere in shot as well as the Langdale fells again. This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |

Grasmere from Brackenfell 6 Simply can't go wrong from up here. Grasmere village and the mere, with Silver Howe behind and the Langdale fells further behind. Just wish the conditions had been clearer. But not to worry, can always try again next year. Might have lost a bit more weight so the climb will seem easier!

Grasmere from Brackenfell 2 Grasmere village and the Mere. Just one of my many stops on this climb up to Alcock Tarn. Just a shame it was not clearer. This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D 1 person has added this picture to their favourites |

Brackenfell to Alcock Tarn The last piece of relatively level ground for almost a mile and a half. The gateway to Brackenfell and eventually Alcock Tarn and from here on it gets steeper and steeper. If only I had known before I started it, but it was worth the effort This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |

Grasmere 23-12-10 Grasmere again from the same point as the 4-9-11 shot, but taken 23-12-10. This time the lake was frozen from edge to edge. Temperature that week did not get much above -3 all week.

Robin Another very quick 'grab' shot, very tight crop from main image. Only about 10 feet away and the little feller wouldn't wait for me to change lenses. Most inconsiderate I thought!
