The last days of autumn.
The last colours of Autumn around Coniston, a tranquil morning with blue skies and reflections.
Arthur Ransome based his childrens’ book ‘Swallows and Amazons’ on locations around Coniston Water and Donald Campbell broke the water speed record on Coniston Water in 1955, and was killed attempting to regain it again in 1967. It was also on the home of John Ruskin the famous art critic for the last thirty years of his life living at Brantwood House across the lake.
