Grisedale Valley – Rock and Water

Grisedale Valley

Located at the head of Grisedale valley and reachable after a long fairly manageable walk is the amazing Grisedale Tarn, map ref 54.501353, -3.002896.

I love this walk and the Grisedale valley as it starts out as typical grazing land, nice lush and green and then suddenly becomes the wild untamed fells you expect from Cumbria.

This image forms part of a series of fine art photographs taken during March 2018 and depicts the amazing variety of browns that you will encounter during March and rugged nature of this very accessible valley.

Its worth noting that it was warm and sunny when we left Patterdale and the temperature dropped considerably as we left the grazing lands and headed up the valley to the tarn.  When we got there it was very cold, there was ice on the tarn and the wind whipped around sucking the warmth from our bodies despite us being dressed in the appropriate layers.  So if you do this walk, make sure to be dressed appropriately, even if you are only planning to stay in the lower valley near the farms the weather here changes very very quickly.

The images were then tweaked in photoshop, to crop them to the shape to fit the frames then were printed on a professional satin/oyster paper on a Canon Pro-100s using genuine Canon ink (A4 and A3 only, the A3+ and canvas prints are outsourced to a third party), thus ensuring professional quality with lots of colour and quality.  Each image is then hand mounted in a basic black frame and d-rings are added so that these stunning photographs are received ready to hang on your wall.Griesdale Tarn – Mycreativeimages.com
