A high-angle, atmospheric landscape of Mickleden valley in the Lake District. A narrow, silvery river snakes in a sharp S-curve through dark green, undulating moorland. In the distance, a small cluster of buildings sits nestled at the base of steep, dramatic fells. Sunlight breaks through heavy, dark grey clouds, illuminating a patch of the valley floor and the side of a sloping mountain.

Following the winding path of Mickleden Beck. There’s nothing quite like the scale of the Great Langdale valley when the light hits the fells just right. A moody, beautiful day in the heart of the Lake District. 🏔️☁️

Crinkle Crags from Mickleden - a lake district painting by David Pott Looking up from Mickleden, between the bulk of Bowfell and Pike O'Blisco, is this view of Crinkle Crags beyond. I was here on a glorious late summer day with barely a soul in sight. Blissful walking.

Another from the 'artchive' this one of #CrinkleCrags from #Mickleden - right at the top of the #Langdale valley.
