A beautiful place, and beautifully painted, the detail in the rocks is brilliant.

You've captured the light beautifully.

Well thank you all so much for your comments, I don't know why but some of the for-ground rocks are missing in this image and it does not look as good as the original.

Lovely view of Simonside from Dove Crag, Jimmy- is it acrylics?

Hi Malcolm, no it's not acrylics it's pastel. I used to paint in acrylics but I thought I would give pastels ago, I had some from a good few ears ago.

Some may not agree, but this is where I used to ride my trials motorcycle in properly organized events many years a go. This was when I realized just what a beautiful county Northumberland is and I had a great time riding my motorcycle as well.
