I hadn't planned on going for a walk today, as I had a business meeting. However, as it was such a lovely spring day I decided it would be nice to have my lunch beside Brothers Water. Well one thing led to another and I ended up having a short but very enjoyable stroll around the lake. I do have to apologize but there are lots of shots of Dove Crag in this album, which just happens to be my favourite lakeland mountain!
