  • A must for Lake District photographers

    This is a great book in organising any photographic trip to the Lakes. It provides much more than just the basic knowledge which can be used to determine your own trip. It provides enough information so that you can decide which areas you wish to spend much more time on and those with not so much time.

  • One of the best

    This is a great guide book for photographing the Lake District. It's packed with information and pictures with lots of great locations. Only downside is it could do with a bit more information and mini maps on how to get to them. But overall I enjoyed it and paired with a OS map I got some great photos.
