Sunlit sentinels

Sunlit sentinels - A superbly still and calm summer's day dawns on Buttermere producing near mirror perfect reflections of the sunlit sentinels overlooked by Fleetwith Pike and Haystacks.

This iconic row of scots pines situated at the southern end of the lake, come alive when first lit by the early morning light in summer. The verdant greens of the pines at this time of year, in stark contrast to the backdrop of the deep shadow of Fleetwith Pike cast along Warnscale Bottom, makes for added drama and beauty of this classic Lakeland scene.

Buttermere is often described as the most beautiful and photogenic of all the Lake District's lakes - it's hard to argue with that when witnessing scenes like this.
