Great web site and I must say a big thanks! I worked at Sellafield and lived in the Lakes for three years. But have not been back since 1982. As I am now looking back on my life, this site was a revelation when I found the screensaver and it certainly brought back a lot of memories and a few lumps in my throat! Will look forward to seeing more photos and hopefully I will get there again before too long.

Great wallpaper, I am from the UK and have been living in the USA for the past 3.5 years. It brings me a little of my homeland. Thank You!!

 

Thu 30 June 2005 Tony MacCulloch Auckland, New Zealand
What a lovely collection of photographs. Thank you for sharing this gift of beauty from your part of the world. I have yet to visit those parts having spent much of my childhood on the Isle of Wight. My wife though has very fond memories of times spent in the Lake district. Your photos will provide a special treat on my desktop. Many thanks. PS: Best wishes with your PhD ... I too am in the midst of a similar venture.

My husband and I are both English and we are living and working in La Jolla. We so appreciate the web site it makes us home sick.We have both lived and worked in many countries but there is none like home.I was born and raised in Lancashire and my husband in Cheshire. I spent alot of my child hood walking in the Lakes. My favorite is Ennerdale and would love to locate back there one day and breed Cotswold sheep.Thank you for all your hardwork you have put into your site we love it. We change our background picture everyday to your most recent photo.

Thank you so much for letting us all enjoy your glorious pictures - the countryside of the UK - a place that stays always in my heart.

 

Thu 19 May 2005 John Warburton Currently in Bangkok
The Lakes occupy a fond spot in my heart. Memories of sleeping outside the Old Dungeon Ghyll hotel after several Old Peculiars, during that long, hot summer of 1976. Where are you Stan and Neil?

 

Tue 17 May 2005 Adam Padel Chilterns, Bucks
I am very grateful for your beautiful website and all your hard work which you share so generously with others. It is a treat for us busy souls who can't get to the Lake District as often as we would like.

 

Mon 18 Apr 2005 Alastair Lee Wolverhampton, UK
I've been coming to The Lake District since 1989; my parents have got a timeshare in Elterwater. I really enjoy the beauty of The Lakes and the peace and quiet. I usually come to the timeshare for a late summer holiday at the end of August, although I haven't been for a couple of years now. The last time I was in The Lake District was in August 2003 when I brought my then girlfriend and her parents to the timeshare and they loved it too. I'm looking forward to returning to The Lakes soon.

 

Sat 16 Apr 2005 Donna Hilton Whitehaven, Cumbria
Great site, love the photos. Since my boyfriend moved to Cumbria we have started walking around the lakes which are beautiful. I've lived here all my life and until now never appreciated it. Your site does the Lake District justice, well done.

 

Sat 9 Apr 2005 Isabella Silvestre Ontario, Canada
Lovely pictures, they remind me of your beautiful country and the wonderful scenery I visited ...

 

Mon 4 Apr 2005 Tony Dorset
You have many lovely pictures. Your site was well worth a visit.

 

Thu 24 Mar 2005 Christoph Braun Donzdorf (close to Stuttgart) - Germany
What a great site! Well done! Your pictures show the real "Lake District" - I spent a half year in that beautiful region five years ago and I can´t forget that piece of earth - for me it was one of the best time of my life.

 

Sat 12 Mar 2005 Denise Rock Northern Ireland
I always thoroughly enjoy my visits to your site. I love the Lake District and try to visit every year, these fantastic shots really capture the area. Thanks for all your painstaking effort.

 

Wed 9 Mar 2005 Austin Nashville, TN, USA
I love your pictures. I have only been to the Lake District once, and it was about five years ago, but your pictures encapsulate my memories of the region.

 

Sun 6 Mar 2005 Linda Logan Ontario, Canada
Another superb link, just discovered today. Marvellous closeups of many of my favourite peak and valley shots. Thank you so very, very much for your efforts - great job!

 

Fri 4 Mar 2005 Irene Oxley Essex
Lovely site, I spend a few minutes here most lunchbreaks and dream I'm back at the Lakes again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos.

 

Thu 3 Mar 2005 Jan Chivers Penzance, Cornwall
What a fantastic site - I update the background on my computer regularly to remind me of all the wonderful days I've spent in the fells.

 

Wed 2 Mar 2005 Jon Prince Toronto, Canada
I really appreciate all the work you've done, your pictures remind me of my time in the UK and always lift my spirits. Thanks.

 

Wed 2 Mar 2005 Phil Sharpe Atlanta, GA
I grew up in the Lake District. Your photos do a great job of transporting me back there when I need a break. Everyone at work who sees your screensavers and wallpaper comment on what a beautiful area the Lake District is, and what a great job you've done in capturing it. Thank you for making these images available to us.

 

Thu 24 Feb 2005 Erast Bangkok, Thailand
Great photos! They remind me of the wonderful time I had in England.

 

Wed 23 Feb 2005 Leo Newport Coventry, England
I love your site and it is a wonderful relief after a hard day working to come home and imagine what it would be like in the Lakes and wishing i was there to bag some peaks.

 

Wed 23 Feb 2005 Andy Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
Great site, brings back memories of geology field trips and other student capers.

 

Tue 22 Feb 2005 Peter Barker Baltimore, Maryland, USA
I was linked to your screensaver from the Apple computer OS X website. Beautiful pictures, they get lots of interest from my colleagues at work. Reminds me of my holidays in the Lake District as a kid, back in the 70's ...

 

Mon 21 Feb 2005 Alan Waters Lancaster, England
Excellent site - many thanks!

Thu 10 Feb 2005 Rob Holman Chislehurst, Kent, England
As a keen photographer myself, I really appreciate the wonderful images on your website. What camera do you use? I have nearly all your photos, which I cycle as my desktop background. I love the Lake District - my wife and I went there back in my courting days, in early 1996, so I have very fond memories. Hope to return soon.

 

Thu 27 Jan 2005 Martin Sykes Sweden
Continuing great photos especially the snow ones - or anything with water. Best wishes.

 

Thu 27 Jan 2005 Mohsin Emirates
Very beautiful.

 

Wed 12 Jan 2005 Roelien den Ouden Leiden, the Netherlands
Thank you for all the beautiful and interesting photos. Every time I see the new e-mail bulletin with several new photos, I feel like I have been offered a very nice present, and I choose my new 'wallpaper' for the next few weeks. My twelve year old son, who has never been to the Lake District (or even to England) also enjoys these images very much. Looking at your photos helps me to forget the stress of every day life. Thank you very much!

 

Tue 11 Jan 2005 Ade Penrith, Cumbria
Fantastic site, well done. I particularly like your Ridge Maps, been meaning to do something similar for ages, already planning my next walk with them.

Wed 3 Nov 2004 Ellen Shockley Chicago, IL, USA
I love your photos, and have so much fun looking through them to pick out a different view every day. I use them as wallpaper at work and it always attracts a crowd asking where are we today? You guys are a big hit!

 

Mon 1 Nov 2004 Joan Bannister Bedfordshire, UK
Same name, same love of the Lake District. We have been going to the Lakes now for 16 years, having discovered the area in our later life. The feeling when you have reached the 'tops' is indescribable, like a drug, the more you get, the more you want!

 

Thu 14 Oct 2004 Rhys Davies Wassenaar, The Netherlands
Congratulations on "bagging" all of the Wainwrights. I completed them some years ago prior to moving to The Netherlands. I still try and visit the Lakes once or twice a year. Your site and the excellent photography remind me of what I miss most about England. Keep up the good work.!

 

Fri 8 Oct 2004 Andy Lythe Leeds, England
Hi, just wanted to say you've done an amazing job capturing the Lakes! Helvellyn now graces my desktop, I've been looking for a quality wallpaper of it for some time so thanks!

 

Mon 4 Oct 2004 Sue Burge Bath, England
Our first visit to the Lake District was a couple of years ago now. We both remember how we drove along the motorway surrounded by the hills and for the one and only time in our marriage I was speechless!! Can't wait to go back next year!! Love the site.

 

Mon 4 Oct 2004 Holly Luck Ottawa, Canada
I have visited the Lakes once and your photos truly capture the beauty in breathtaking reality of the region. Keep up the great work!

 

Fri 1 Oct 2004 Yves Kuypers St-Maria-Lierde, Belgium
Just happened to come across the site by chance. Immediately had a quick look at a few of the Lake District pics. I'm drooling, I'm drooling!!! And still 179 to go. And then there's Wales waiting. And The Moors. And the Highlands. And ... Been at the District & Dartmoor one holiday; you do capture their immense beauty and quiet. So: big accolade for your photographs, and many thanks for letting us share this pleasure. I will return!

 

Fri 17 Sept 2004 Diane Regan London
Love the site!!! Proud to know you!!!

 

Tue 31 Aug 2004 Terry Carpenter Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

Lovely to discover your website! Thank you for the lovely photos and all the information.

 

Sat 28 Aug 2004 Rita New York, USA
I visited the Lake District 3 years ago, it was breathtaking. I wish to go back! For now I will use one of your lovely backgrounds on my PC. I will visit often. Thank you!

 

Wed 25 Aug 2004 Selina Hockley Norfolk, England
The Lake District - our favourite place. Using the photos as a background to my work PC is just what I was looking for. Can't wait for my next visit to 'bag' a few more Wainwrights in September.

 

Tue 24 Aug 2004 David Such Rhiwlas, Bangor, North Wales
The best photos and memories of this most beautiful, exciting place on earth. When I wish I was there, I just go to your web site. My heart is there always.


Mon 23 Aug 2004 Sam Carpenter London

Sat 14 Aug 2004 Richard Chipchase Widnes, UK
I have just come across your website and think that it is absolutely brilliant. I use your pictures as my background all of the time. It is also an excellent resource site for teachers and I will recommend it to my colleagues. Keep up the good work.

 

Fri 13 Aug 2004 Jan Matthews Dalton-in-Furness (South Cumbria)
I live in the south of the Lake District and have done a great deal of climbing in the Lakes before having a leg amputated. The pictures are absolutely fantastic - some winter ones next time please and thank you very much.

 

Wed 4 Aug 2004 John Powell United Kingdom
It's been a while since my last visit to the "Lakes", a timely reminder for my to return. Regards John.

 

Sun 1 Aug 2004 David Williams Liverpool
I noticed on your Ridgemap 1 that you don't show the ridges between Middle Dodd and Red Screes, and Little Hart Crag and High Hartsop Dodd. Strangely it appears to be AW's omission rather than yours, but having just walked the four of them from Brothers Water I can assure you that they are there!

 

Wed 28 July 2004 Sascha Hannover, Germany
Nice site. I visit the site and was very surprised. All my compliments. I will often come back and have a look what´s new. Greetings from Germany.

 

Wed 28 July 2004 Tony Helsloot Amsterdam
I like the idea of your site and especially as you offer them from one of best photo locations in the U.K. Sheep and lamb on Latrigg is a great image. Good luck with your website.

 

Sun 18 July 2004 Craig Scaysbrook East Gwillimbury, Ontario, Canada
Wonderful photos. Thanks to you Andy, my desktop is brilliant!

 

Tue 13 July 2004 James Lyons New York City, USA
Great pictures! Truly breathtaking. I am including them on an PC image in the company where I work so people don't feel they have to download those horrible screensaver things. Please keep taking these pictures and thank you so much for sharing them.

 

Tue 6 July 2004 Sean McMahon Lake District, England
Great photos, I enjoy dropping by regularly.

 

Tue 6 July 2004 Laura
Attractive!

 

Thu 1 July 2004 Simon Keppie Manchester, England
Living near the Lakes, I've been there many times and visited most of the lakes and walked many of the fells in all conditions, and I think your photo's are probably the best I've ever seen. They're almost like being there and a great joy to see.

 

Sat 15 May 2004 Christopher Walls Glendale, Arizona, USA
Very beautiful photography. What kind of equipment are you using, if you don't mind me asking? I may post a few pics of the Arizona area on my site soon...!

 

Thu 6 May 2004 Ken Pearson Boston, MA, USA
Great site, with many beautiful pictures, which now rotate on my desktop. Thank you very much!

 

Tue 27 Apr 2004 John Tredrea & Donna Aster Pennington, New Jersey, USA
This is a beautiful website! The Tredrea family lived in Ulverston for many generations, and now this American branch can remember our hikes there and 'visit' the area more frequently, thanks to your photos.

 

Wed 21 Apr 2004 Alex Rodie Suffolk
A beautiful website. I'll have to rely on these pictures on my desktop until I can go and fetch some more of my own!

 

Sun 18 Apr 2004 Paul Chapman Denmark
Thanks....!!! living in Denmark for the past 9 years has made the heart grow fonder, especially for the Lakes. Coming from Bolton, we used to drive up and hike at every opportunity. Each time I come home, I take my wife up to the most beautiful part of Britain, now I can show her every day. Thanks, keep up the good work.

 

Tue 13 Apr 2004 Mark M. Blyth, Northumberland
Very nice collection of photos. The Lakes must be the most photographed place in the U.K. Well done and look forward to my next visit to your site.

 

Sat 10 Apr 2004 James Swarbrick Aylesbury, Bucks
For someone born not far away (Lancaster) and who has spent many happy hours of walking and climbing the fells and also been able to pass on to tourists my knowledge of this area its a great way of reminiscing, thanks.

 

Fri 9 Apr 2004 Bill Wilson Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada
Fantastic photograph's. I change my background picture everytime you put a new one on the net. Keeps me in touch with the fells I used to walk as a shepherd up at Seathwaite Farm, Borrowdale 45 years ago!! Keep putting out the photographs there is a old Cumbrian over here that really needs them!! All the best, and watch out for lambs ont road!!! Regards, Bill Wilson.

 

Fri 9 Apr 2004 Colin Barnes Shirebrook, Derbyshire
My sister lives at Harrington. We have had many wonderful holidays in the Lake District spanning 30 years or so, the images for my computer back drop continually remind me of the unprecedented beauty of the Lake District. Keep up the images please!

 

Thu 8 Apr 2004 Stephen Smith Coventry, UK
