Today's walk (Keswick rambling club): Holme Fell


starting out on the track towards High Oxen Fell


one man and his dog


High Oxen Fell ..


.. even the barn has flower baskets


a glimpse of the big hole at Hodge Close quarry


Holme Fell comes into sight


on the way up Holme Fell with Wetherlam behind


the ghostly silhouette of the Langdale Pikes in the distance


a brief moment of sunshine near the top of Holme Fell - Lingmoor Fell beyond


a hazy view of Coniston Water from Holme Fell


Wetherlam from Holme Fell summit


photographing the reservoirs below Holme Fell


zooming in on one of the reservoirs


the big cairn on Ivy Crag with Lingmoor Fell in the distance


descending towards Yew Tree Tarn


Yew Tree Farm, now operating a walker's tea room


in the woods of Glen Mary


Tom Gill waterfall


Tarn Hows
