Morten Hilmer is an great photographer, he's done a few edits like that but my favourites of his are when he's out in the wilderness taking photos of wildlife. He goes into a lot of detail explaining his equipment choices and processes for working in that environment. I'm not massively interested in any of this on it's own but he presents it in a way that catches my interest.

And it's okay to enjoy what others might think of as "strange" :santa:

It's the central Lake District in Cumbria, England.

It's basically the only area within England that has a decently varied section of "mountains" (the tallest of which is only 964m high (just slightly more than 3000 ft).

That fell is called Place Fell and it offers good views of some of the higher central fells along with loads of flat areas to pitch a tent. Lots of people climb Helvellyn in that same area (on the other side of the Lake he's looking down on), as it has an easy scramble-able ridge line.

The eastern side of the Lake District national park is about 90 minutes drive from my house and I used to go most months but I've gotten out of the habit. :oldryan:

I imagine however it's quite a bit busier than any WILDERNESS areas you have access to. It's so accessible now that the more popular hills have crowds on them almost every day of the year.

I follow some of these folks. Some great bushcrafting channels around.

Thankfully I know how to avoid the crowds these days (mostly).
