A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

Tuesdays early morning walk, the dogs got me up early so we had a wander to some local woods at Cliburn Moss in the Eden Valley, Cumbria. A quiet wander with soft light filtering through the trees, most enjoyable. #landscapephotography #trees #cumbria #uk

Mid February morning sunshine at #Derwentwater near #Keswick in the #LakeDistrict. A light dusting of snow on the tops and fluffy clouds and blue sky gave some lovely reflections #landscapephotography #uk #England #winter #cumbria #mountains

A recent morning walk through snowy painted woods captured my eye after a windy night of showers in the Glenmore forest in the Cairngorms, Scotland. It felt almost black and white #landscapephotography #scotland #cairngorms #woodland

Having been away without the dogs for a few days they got me up at 6am this morning all excited so off we went to the beach at #Bamburgh #Northumberland #seascape #uk

A busy landscape but I couldn't resist spending time watching the mix of birds having some form of meeting and feeding frenzy on the edge of the lake at #Derwentwater in the #LakeDistrict on a January morning #mountains #cumbria #keswick #uk #water

A few doggy pics from my weekend walks up Hayeswater Gill and Angle Tarn in the Lake District. The dogs had a splendid muddy and wet swimming day and were ready to go again the next day. #labradors #lakedistrict #uk #cumbria

The remainder of the cloud inversion that covered the Ullswater area yesterday morning accompanied by freezing fog. It had disappeared by about 10:00am but was dramatic over Hayeswater and Grey Cragg as I climbed up to Satura Crag. A beautiful days walking #landscapephotography #lakedistrict #uk

End of today's walk at Beddgelert in the Snowdonia National Park, Wales and the river Glaslyn. A quick visit to Gelets grave(the village is named after the dog), the faithful dog of Prince Llywelyn and it seemed appropriate. Mine are now both asleep. #landscapephotography #Wales #Snowdonia

I often wonder what the dogs are thinking on these windy and wet walks and I think today Willow was initially thinking NOT ANOTHER BLOODY HILL but then she went into mad zoomies running through the bracken 😂 #landscapephotography #lakedistrict #winter #Cumbria #hallinfell #labradorsl #uk

One of my favourite mountains in the Lake District - Blencathra, so many ways to go up and come down. This morning shot was taken from woods above Rookin House. Lightly snow covered ridges and tops #Lakedistrict #landscapephotography #blencathra #winter #snow #cumbria #mountains #uk
