An amble beside Ambleside

 Here's a selection of photographs from today's stroll from Ambleside. I hadn't fully made my mind up about how far to go, but I ended up following the waterfall trail up through the woods, and then heading up to the top of Wansfell. It is a pretty steep walk up, so it was handy to stop every so often to take photographs!




 There was a turnstile gate which I accidentally caught somebody standing on spinning round and round like a roundabout! They hastily moved on when they saw me, but they gave me the idea for this photo. I spun the gate round before taking the picture, and had a reasonably long shutter speed (not too long though as I was holding the camera steady without a tripod). The effect is rather ghostly I think, a disappearing turnstile gate!



 The first of the Autumn colour is edging it's way in. People may complain about the end of the summer, but I for one do actually quite enjoy the Autumn when all the colours burst out.
