Ashness Bridge, Cumbria - Click for next Photo

Ashness Bridge must be one of the most photographed spots in the Lake District, but it has taken several visits to capture an image of it that I was happy with; this photograph being taken in Autumn 2002.

Ashness Bridge was a subject for artists long before the invention of photography.
Click here for a view of the bridge produced as an engraving in 1833. The view has changed little, and the engraving exhibits very little in the way of "artistic licence".

I have a limited number of high quality prints available of this photo for immediate dispatch. (15x12 and 20x16 inches prints available).
E-mail me for more details.
