Ohh wow, there's some beautiful scenery there. Reminds me a lot of the area around Kielder too and makes me want to get in the car one day this week for a drive over there while I'm off work :-)

The only time I've eve been to Kielder it was incredibly wet and we got soaked cycling... the bike hire man thought we were insane, but my daughter (who was about six) made up a song about having an ocean in her wellies that made it rather special despite the rain :)

That pretty much sums up Kielder though, in my late teens myself and a mate used to ride over on the motorbikes and camp a couple of nights. We'd leave here in blazing sunshine then half way there change into our waterproofs lol.

Oh wow, gorgeous. All the green and the rolling hills.

Breathtakingly beautiful, land and sky both!

I love those days when you get sunshine and clouds - I love the pattern of light and shadows across the hills, it seems to add to the sense of grand scale somehow.

Me, too! I could watch cloud shadows across the hills for hours on end.

Ah, you're lucky to live up there, it's a beautiful area - it's far too flat for my liking down here. I'll take you up on that cup one day :)

Oh wow, it's so beautiful! Especially the second pic - classically green.

England this time of year is so very lush and green and beautiful, it's a joy to be out there when you get the weather.

So gorgeous!

(Is it bad that I saw the rocks in the first pic and my first thought was that they might be good ones for Alex to work out with?)

We did see a couple of runners out on the fell, but neither of them was as hot as Alex...

Oooh, such beautiful pics! It looks like a breathtakingly lovely area.

It's particularly lovely this time of year when everything is so green :)

It was - lots of wildlife too, Skylarks, Red Grouse with chicks, Curlews and Golden Plovers. Very special.

Those are glorious! Thanks for the uplifting pictures!

Glad you like the photos. It was a joy and a privilege to be up there on such a lovely morning :)

Lovely. I would enjoy hiking there.

It was so beautiful up there, and all the better because we'd started early so we saw hardly anyone until we dropped down to the waterside towards the very end of the walk.

You're lucky to be able to get out early. Every time I plan to get out for an early hike, I end up with errands that have to be run. :-(

Beautiful :) I love the cloud shadows on the hills.
