~A place I often take my camera is Great Mell Fell

~A place I often take my camera is Great Mell Fell, it is a lovely little isolated fell just north of Ullswater and adjacent to the Eastern fells, it can be seen from the A66 between Penrith and Keswick. It rises from a level plain to a height of 537 m. The fell is now managed and owned by the National Trust. It is said that the last wild cat in Cumberland was snared here in the nineteenth century.
The fell was once well wooded, and still has a covering of trees on the lower slopes, as well as scattered larches and pines higher up, some of the trees make wonderful photo opportunities especially on misty days.
Great Mell Fell also happens to host one of the last remaining herds of wild ponies in the country, which is what really attracts me to the place. I always have upmost respect for these wild creatures and although I’ve sort of got to know them and they are mostly friendly to me I know I need to be careful. I’m in their territory and they defend their patch and each other.
It took me months to find them last year, they actually get moved from Great Mell to the lower lands, a field near Aira Force waterfall, in the summer months. (I was searching for months in the wrong place) I’ve taken so many photos of these beautiful creatures last year, the challenge of self portraits with them has been fun and the canon has survived being trodden on, kicked, licked, chewed and spat out ( canon should bloody pay me for doing these extreme tests) I’m still searching for that ‘good’ shot, some have been half decent though. When lockdown rules are lifted I look forward to getting back out to see them again.

This is just to say hello and looking forward very

This is just to say hello and looking forward very much to calmer times ahead, much love and take care❤️
