Found at the center of Lake District national Park, Lake Windermere is England’s largest expanse of freshwater.
it is also the perfect place to welcome in a new day in the warm summer months.
It was 4:00am and my ship rocked delicately below the parting night sky. The brightest stars were still faintly obvious to the naked eye.
The moon’s content face was going to greet the sun and hail another stunning day, these two astronomical friends never far from each other in the heavens.
I fixed my fishing rod to the side of the boat and gawked up at the last coals of stars as they faded from view.
there was something liberating about the night sky ; a yearning to explore further afield washed thru me.
As my mind drifted, the sun began to climb above the horizon. Soon, a superb array of color spread across the morning sky.
As the sun rose higher, its first-light began to sparkle on the open water, like gems dancing at the new dawn.
Daybreak was met with the attractive song of the skylark, nature’s most classy alarm call.
I peered through the morning mist and scanned the fringe of the lake. I was still alone, without any other person to witness morning’s glory.
I sensed a wonderful feeling of solitude. Secluded on my boat, I was the only person alive lucky enough to observe this new light.
A gentle breeze puffed its way across the lake, drawing ripples in the water.
As morning advanced, the mist cleared to bare the Naked mountains that form the backdrop to this wonderful picture.
The occasional being might be seen around the fringe of the lake including a person and his dog, drawn from their slumber to enjoy the new day.
I had lost my non-public audience with Lake Windermere, but there was always tomorrow.
