Lazy Christmas afternoon and evening at the Waterhead Hotel at Ambleside, Lake District

25 December 2012

After the traditional six course Christmas Day lunch served by the Waterhead Hotel with all the trimmings, the locals settled in the bar to watch the Queen’s speech televised at 3 PM. We had no interest in the Queen’s speech, so we went out to enjoy the beauty of the Lake District around Ambleside.

In winter, the day was short and sky started getting dark at about 4.30 PM. It was interesting to take photos during this period of dusk in winter.

From this..

to this…...



We went back to Borrans Park to shoot the dusk scene of Lake Windermere and Ambleside.

Evening was relaxed and informal and an ideal opportunity to enjoy a drink or two at the bar while waiting for the Gala buffet dinner to be served at 7.30 PM.
