- In this 2 part video, I capture the best sunset I have ever seen. Complimented by a mountain view to die for... WOW!
PART 2 • Lake District National...
Lake District National Park. Landscape Photography over 5 Days. In this video, I show not 1 but 36 Images. My best video to date! Part 1 of a 2 part video series.
My very good friend Pete and I embarked on a landscape journey to the Lake District National Park last week. Thie intention was to photograph as many newly discovered (by us) areas and a few classic areas too. I mean, why not!
As you could imagine the weather was very hit and miss throughout the week. It was the end of January so we didn't expect anything different.
I'll offer a full breakdown of where we ventured to on my website. From there you can take a closer look at all the pictures I took too.
WEBSITE: tinyurl.com/k7vgzv4
We were based just outside of Keswick which is on the northerly border of the Lake District. In fact, the amazing stately home was uniquely sat on a hill that had views north to Scotland, east to Cumbria and south to the Lakes. How's that for location, location, location. We stayed in an amazing cottage on the grounds of the stately home. I'll leave contact info on the site too.
In this video, You'll see me taking pictures on a freezing cold morning. The Jetty was an amazing find. We discovered a waterfall covered in bright green moss. It looked amazing! Bettering that we discovered a rock/cliff that offered some of the best views in the Lakes I have ever seen.
If this wasn't enough, on our way home the sky's just lit up. It' was like the mountain was on fire. One word... WOW!

WEEKLY VLOGGING... Since I've committed to weekly vlogging, you get the best and the worst. Besides, it's probably good to know that we don't always have successful days!
I make at least one video a week, and I've got some amazing locations penned. Please make it worth my while and support the channel.

Guess what guy's, muppetry strikes again on my behalf...
At the beginning of the video when I said I was at Derwent Water I wasn't. I was actually at a lake I have never heard of. It was Thirlmere Lake. DOH!
David Roby and Simon Turnbull both said I was a muppet :) OK so they didn't put it so politely but I got the message :)
I had to Google "Thirlmere Lake" as I've never heard of it before. I dropped the little man onto the map and went around the damn lake virtually. It was there like they said pffff
This is my apology, I have to admit muppetry lol. Thanks for pointing it out guys. I've honestly never heard of it before. When you drive aimlessly around it's sometimes difficult to know when you go from one lake to another. That's my excuse lol Thank you. There you go, I wasn't trying to keep the location secret, I'm just being stupid! AGAIN!
Gary Gough I’M NOT MAD! (Removes pants from head). Drat, I was going to offer a bet...next time. Regardless of location, great vlog 👍
Gary Gough ps it’s a reservoir...you probably drink the water from it :-)
I'm out of apologies now lol hehehe
Gary Gough I met a chap on Walla Crag at the weekend, confused as to why his view didn’t look the same as the one Heaton was showing in his vlog. I told him Heaton wasn’t in Walla...he was on Shepherd’s Crag. You’re in good company :-)
lol good to know it's not just me :)
What a fabulous discovery Gary! Thanks for sharing your discovery.
Can’t wait for part 2. SUPERB
Thanks Mick
Gary, ive shook my head in admiration at all of those images, unbelievable work
Thank you Dave 👍👍
Gary Gary Gary.....
In the 14 or 15 months of watch CZcams photography videos only 1 has got me the way this has, that was by Paul Johnson - Isle of Skye, Goose bumps is all i can say....
The location , the scene, the drone footage ( to die for ) and all topped of with that sound track.
This is right up there, right up there, one you should be very proud of.
Thank you Scott, Thank you so much for saying. Comments like this just make it all worthwhile 👍 👍
Such pleasure watching someone who actually loves there job or hobby or both. The way you present the videos and your enthusiasm are a credit to yourself... keep em coming 👍
Thank you Parrish, very kind 👍👍
You're right - WOW! Beautiful images and love the fact that you convey your enthusiasm. Cheers.
Thank you Alan
Another superb vlog Gary. The image get better and better as the video progresses, and that sunset is simply amazing. Looking forward to part 2
Cheers Stephen
O.k......I'm judging the moss photos and they are wonderful!!!! Totally love it!
Thank you 👍
What can be better than following my fav photographer Thomas Heaton's latest video, than one of Gary's!!
I was up Scafell and Lingmell last weekend, talk about breathtaking landscapes & photography opportunities. I love Gary's passion for the Lake district and it's scenery, I have it too!!!! Cheers Gary.
Cheers Micky. A bit of a come-down after Thomas I'm sure but really glad you persevered with it :)
Ha ha your too modest! Besides, the story about locking your car keys in the car, you told on Thomas's 'An eveing with' was so funny! It's easier to connect with a great photographer when he does very 'normal' things !!😉. Please keep up the good work Gary.
Very emotional Gary.Great music and stunning images.I agree about your favourite, those colours but the others all cracking too.Well done that man.Your still looking well for the age.He he.
lol I'll take that as a compliment :) 👍
WOW, yet again Gary Stunning, thanks for sharing
Wow Gary, some absolute mind blowing images there. Fantastic talent. Thanks.
Thank you, Alan, 👍
Well you had an absolute cracking day I couldn't pick one as my fav just too many great images to choose from. Brilliant vlog Gary and I'm loving the music you have chosen. I know so little of the lakes I need to free up some time and go have a wander. Looking forward to part 2
Thank you Peter. Go on, make time!
Bravo Mr Gough. Bravo.
Cheers Doug, very kind
So many cracking photos in there Gary. Really outstanding for just one day's work. I loved this from start to finish.
Thank you Ollie
Stunning Images, thanks again for sharing.
You're welcome Andy
The shot with the waterfall framed by the branches is superb Gary 👍
Cheers Ian
Really enjoyed this video. To experience great light, a grand view.
Glad you enjoyed it
Fabulous images, great blog. Your passion for your craft, in difficult conditions, has been rewarded.
Cheers Rod
Gary, I had to stop watching part way through to say this is your best work yet! It's downright cinematic!. What great drone footage, editing, music, color correction, fonts, etc....Thanks for making my evening!
You're too kind Ronald
Enthusiastic, passionate, descriptive, informative and as always enjoyable. Stunning images from stunning locations. And as everyone is glued to their 📺 and off the roads, providing a major contribution to road safety 😀. And a cameo from Forest Gump lol. Brilliant work Gary, more please.
Hi Peter. Never thought of it like that. Saving the planet single-handedly! 👍
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE - you've really done it this time!!! Hard to pick a fav, but I really like yours. Really liking the green mossy pix, very otherworldly. Get outside the box, why not?
Glad you liked the pictures. Very kind 👍👍
WOW.......just WOW....
Gary, I agree, you have found a gem. I really love the photography. I particularly liked the images at the end with the two trees towards the foreground, just to the right of the centre of the frame. There was a nice colour contrast between the green and the colours on the hills in the distance. I also really liked the trees and rocks with moss and the long exposures on the edge of the water and the gentle meandering stream tumbling under a bridge with the lake and mountains in the distance. While we all know golden and blue hour are special, you’ve also proved to me something I have long believed, you can shoot at other times of the day and capture drama in the skies and on the ground, especially on partly overcast days. I am enjoying your weekly vlogs. I need to get to the Lake District on one of our future trip back to Blighty.
Thanks for your kind comments 👍👍
Great vlog again, love the punch in those colours of ashness bridge and sunset pic.
Thanks John 👍
Absolutely beautiful images Gary.
Cheers Jim, very kind
Fantastic Gary. The best video I've seen from you. Well done.
Thanks Glenn
Eye popping images ,love your enthusiasm!
Thank you for saying
some of the best photo's i have ever seen, Hat's off to you sir Gough
A strong statement but I'll take it every time. Thank you 👍
Gary, some very seriously good pictures in there. They were all "Keepers"
Cheers Chucky
Every now & again I watch a vlog that simply blows me away with the quality of images and videography and this is one - just superb! Your choice of music to accompany the landscapes and images is excellent Gary. I love those last sunset shots, however the panoramas at the beginning are equally as good. Great stuff!!
Cheers Jamie. Taken back by your kind words. Thank you
Gary as always amazing photos. I really enjoy watching your videos. I loved those photos of the Moss, it brings out the photos. Great job.
Cheers Tony
Yes I agree your fav shot is the best of all as it is closer in that group and the areas are balanced with the trees in the foreground and mid ground.Its wonderful to see nature captured so well for us all to view and enjoy.
Cheers Rob.
Thank you Rob, very kind
Amazing Landscapes! The good Lord has certainly supplied us with such wonderful beauty. Thanks for sharing Gary!
Youre very welcome. Thanks for say
Will be there in June, so looking forward to shooting in Lake District. Thanks for the video Gary!
You'll love it. I hope the weather is favourable :)
One word.....WOW...
Thumbs way up. Stunning, beautiful, beautiful work
Cheers Tim 👍
Fantastic blog mate, one of your best. Ace drone work, great sound track and some truly amazing shots. My fave is the 3rd jetty pic and the moss tree but would be proud to have taken all of them. Keep it up, looking forward to part 2 👌 Jase
Cheers Jason. I hope PTII lives up to its predecessor!
Superb landscapes. I particularly liked the angle at which you chose to shoot the tree with moss. It was like a frame within a frame. Clever.
Thank you Behram
Some of your very best pictures from the Lakes Gary for me, thanks for sharing, the moss covered tree works very well, I would have left the sky out though but good to be different.
Not a tree taker normally. I know what you mean about the sky though. Cheers Phil 👍👍
WoW Real Eye Candy you have over there, The only Hills I have around here are freaking speed Bumps....Keep them Coming cant wait for Part 2.....From Ontario Canada
lol love it George. We have plenty of them in the UK too :)
Wow!!
Thank you kindly 👍
Mind blowing !!!
Thank you 👍👍
Not one for commenting but have to say some truely beautiful images mr Gough
Cheers Mark.
Beautiful videos and images...especially the last one
Thank you Satvinger
I liked the mossy tree photo the best :). Nicely done, Gary!
Cheers Chris 👍
These are genuinely stunning images, even by your standards - well done on finding a unique viewpoint as well. The music selection is just the icing on a perfect cake - masterful stuff.
Thank you kindly 👍👍
In a word Gary, wow! Those sunset shots were just amazing...
Been watching the SpaceX launch videos today, nice to be back on earth in the Lake District once again...
Bill Farr... :-)
Cheers Bill. I watched that too. Pretty fascinating stuff. Welcome back to Earth :)
great vlog gary, breathtaking images along with the music makes you feel you wanna be there and away from it all
Thanks Jim 👍
10/10 here for your colour grading, incredible life like colours with just a subtle amount of boomification!
Infact, I actually can't get over your colours here. Please tell me your using more than Lightroom here, if not I may as well put my laptop in the bath.
lol Thank you Harry. I don't use Lightroom, never have. I only post-process in PS Glad you like it
Fantastic images Gary as always. But these were super special. Amazing.
Thank you Nick 👍
Gary Gough I was actually watching the video again as your reply came through. I need to find some time to get to the Lakes. Only a four hour drive!
Gary- Absolutely beautiful the last sunset and the one with the stream and the bridge are just great - Well done
Thank you Michael 👍👍
Genuinely inspiring!! Ashness Bridge is one of my favourite spots as is Cat Bells. Your photography is stunning!!!
Thank you Chris 👍
Such an incredibly stunning video! I love the tree shot! Someone mentioned the music - great, as usual!
Thank you Sean
Wow, a great selection of images, loved them all. The tree was superb, the level of detail is unbelievable.
Great video
Cheers Darren
Great photos, as usual, coupled with your enthusiasm, made a top Vlog. I particularly liked the dancing fungi on the emerald limb.
Mike in Oz
It seems to be everyone's favourite. I'm warming to it, slowly. Cheers Mike from Oz :)
Love your videos, they are very inspirational. thank you for inspiring me to get back into landscape photography!
You're welcome Mike 👍 Thanks for saying too
Great to see someone getting excited about images / locations. I think we have all been there and know that feeling your were experiencing . Not always but sometimes as well it is good to have mate along to share that moment - a few of my best photography days have been shared with a mate for sure. Your images speak for themselves, top notch as always. If I had to pick a fave it would be the mono with the twin trees at abt 13.05.
I had to toss a coin between the colour and the B&W one. It was a close call. Cheers 👍
Another blinding vlog, and the images are magical. Well done Gary.
Thank you Charles 👍
Bloody awesome, speechless.
Cheers Martin 👍
Excellent vlog! Beautiful captures! I loved your mossy tree shots, especially the first one where the mossy tree frames the waterfall - just stunning! Great work, keep it up:)
Hi Kim, thank you
Coincido en la última, es espectacular. Saludos.
One of your best vlogs when it comes to location :-)
Thank you Jarle 👍
Great vlog Gary, the locations and images are truly stunning, loved you enthusiasm for your newly discovered location, and you were rewarded with amazing images!
Thank you, Paul 👍
Again a very nice vlog to watch Gary. What an amazing scenery to look at. I can imagine you had a great time spending their. I liked all of your pictures and the one with the trees covered with moss, splendid.
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers
Garry.an absolutely stunning video!!.Images were fantastic.we are all looking forward to seeing more on this side of the pond.
Cheers,Mike DuPonte
Tampa,Fl.USA
Hi Michael, thank you
What a great video Gary, the Lakes is our second home. Lovely to see your vision of it. Also great to see my very good friend Mr Bristo making a cameo :)
Keep up the fantastic work :)
Cheers Lawrence. He was with me in the Isle of Skye last week too :)
Gary Gough , ah brilliant mate, Pete and Sheryl are good friends. Hope you all had a fantastic time.
Love your videos mate :)
Fantastic again.
Thank you Dean 👍👍👍
Awesome pictures Gary!!
Cheers Jason 👍
Absolutely stunning images, I love the road bridge shoots especially.
Thanks Gary.
Peter Rennison
Thank you again Peter. Very kind
Hi Gary I have to say i'am totally blown away i've just watched parts 1 and 2 of 5 days 36 pictures in the lake district.
stunning what more can i say absolutly fantastic you are my number 1 youtube photographer.
Comments like this make it all worthwhile - THANK YOU 👍 👍
Great video fantastic shots one of your best in my humble opinion keep them coming
Thank you Philip. New video out tomorrow 4PM UK time. I hope it lives up to your expectations :)
Awesome video Gary and sublime images. I’ve only recently discovered your work and your vlogs but I am already a big fan. Definitely an inspiring set of photos is ever I saw it. Keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you Andy 👍👍 Welcome to the old guys channel :)
Fantastic! The image at 12:07 was superb! I never fail to be inspired by the people who inspired me right from the start.
Cheers John, very kind as always. 👍 Aaa, you like the tree shot. I just think tree pictures look more inspiring with the eye and not the lens. I'm warming to it though :)
Gary Gough it could have been used as a lord of the rings poster. Very magical. Check out my latest if you get chance and see where I got to when down your gaff
Wow, Gary - I've never seen a single vlog with so many GREAT images - every one fantastic! Your passion and enthusiasm really came through on this one and was truly inspiring. The drone shot at the beginning was awesome and really set the scene for what followed. Can't wait for Part 2....................many thanks.
Thank you, Robert, for saying. Lot's of work went into it. Really glad you appreciate it 👍👍
I love your vlog but you have surpassed yourself with this one. Where other photography vloggers are moaning about not getting a shot, you nail every one. in this video. And I get the green tree thing, I was nodding along thinking "yeah, that's me too, glad the pros also struggle". Then you showed the picture. The use of the green branches to frame the bridge was superb, works perfectly. *bins camera, slinks off*
lol I normally struggle with the tree's if I'm honest. For me, it's like when I go out and attempt to shoot Architectures. I can see something that looks nice but translating that to the camera doesn't very often work for me. Thanks Heather 👍
That is a very productive trip! Some of the best images I have seen from you. Two photos stand out for me, your last shot (beautiful sky) and the bridge image which I think is powerful. I may not be the prettiest but it projects the harshness and desolation of a winter day. Cheers.
Agree re your choice of images. Glad you liked the video. Thanks Phillipe 👍
Thanks Gary, for the spectacular images and film. One of the best i have seen ever. Congrats .
That's praise of the highest order. Thank you 👍👍 👍👍
AMAZING IMAGES.
Truly awesome images and you nailed the tree.
Thanks Phil
absolutely brilliant landscape photos
Thank you Sven
You certainly are blessed with a beautiful place to live and photography. Keep the vids coming love your work!
Cheers Shane
lol sweet spot and lovely shots....
:) Thank you
So professional mate I have so much to learn truly great video footage and images to back footage up
Cheers Paul
Well Gary, after watching your vlogs on the lakes and other areas you have giving me the kick up the backside I've needed for a while now, and I have vowed to visit the lakes as much as I can. I used to go to the lakes every weekend in my younger days sometimes straight after work (back-shift) and get there for sunrise next day, save me from getting up early. I've covered much you have done and much more besides, and I can understand how exciting it can be. So keep up the good work and look forward to more videos, I love watching the antics your mates get up to especially going up to Warnscale Bothy that was class.
lol cheers Mick. I can't take them with me all the time, I'd never get anything done :) As Arnie says... they'll be back!
Brilliant, it is excellent the way you detail the camera settings, very helpful to me, (and I guess many others).
The North Lakes is simply STUNNING! It does not surprise me the excitement and passion you share with us. I know those locations quite well.
You are inspiring to watch.
Unbelievable images and a down to earth, genuine commentary.
and it's comments like this that make it all worthwhile. Thank you 👍
Awesome, Awesome, I can only echo what everyone else has said, fantastic vlog, inspirational!!
Thank you
You can certainly understand why Alfred Wainwright loved the place...stunning scenery and stunning photographs Gary, I’m so glad I subscribed to you....full of inspiration and techniques. Thank you my friend 👍🏼🏆😊
You're welcome and thanks for the support 👍
Beautiful shots mate top draw, and you're right , a shot taken well is like scoring a goal
If anyone reads this TAKE A LOOK AT DAVE'S WORK instagram.com/david_pearce_photography IT'S BRILLIANT
Cheers David. You're producing some amazing work on Instagram BTW. You're out there more than me :) Well done to you too.
Gary blown away thank you
Well done Gary. Very enjoyable vlog. It looked colder than a well-digger’s ass down by the lake and that stream. Drone work was special. I’d have to agree with you about wanting to keep going back to that area as there looked to be all sorts of promising comps available.
Great analogy, That's getting used :) Cheers John
Wonderful images! I know Derwnet Water well and especially love Borrowdale at the end of the lake distant from Keswick. The photos of the "most photographed bridge in the lakes" are stunning. And that sunset - well worth the effusive enthusiasm!!!
Consider myself better educated. I just looked up the word "effusive" :) Cheers Jerry for your inspiring comments 👍
I love your mos pictures and the rest great job I wish I was there
Cheers Kenneth
What an amazing video. The shots are superb.
Cheers Mark 👍
Thumbs up ere' Gary! yet agin another great photography vlog and making good use of the drone shots! Lovely place to capture and a photographers dream! Well done, great set of images and really enjoyed the video! Many thanks for sharing your work :)
Learning from the best :) Cheers
Stunning! Gary :-)
Thank you John
The photo of the waterfall framed by the mossy trees at 12.20 is fan-bloody-tastic Gary. It’s something I really struggle to do properly. Good job Sir! Keep it up...
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW. This has to be the best blog yet. The drone work is stunning, as are the images, to many to name but every shot just scores a 10 out of 10 for me. And your enthusiasm is catching. These big names that your starting to meet should feel honoured to be in your company. Great stuff mate.
Very kind of you to say Steve. Comments like this just make it worthwhile. Thank you 👍
Your ability to visually tell a story is impeccable. Your choice of music with this one is spot on as well. For the last 2 hours I have watched your vlogs and I'm hooked. You have a new fan. Keep up the great work.
and it's comments like this that make it all worthwhile. Thank you very much 👍
I’ve seen two of your video’s and I’m a fan! Stunning pics!
Thank you again. New video out tomorrow 4PM UK time. I hope it lives up to your expectations :)
