I've seen a few shots of late posted from the Lakes and yet the place is still very quiet. Yes, the area has suffered a bit and there are one or two issues with a couple of roads but there is nothing that is insurmountable and truth be told we have some of the most beautiful diversions you are likely to find anywhere. I travel through Glenridding most days and the number of cars parked up is minimal compared to normal. The shops, pubs and businesses are still open but I think some may start to struggle. My local is at Yanwath and in December takings were down 80%. The area is one of the most beautiful and is damn near perfect for landscape photography as it is so compact and yet conditions can fluctuate so much from valley to valley. More to the point I think it is at its best when you are out and about in a blend of rain/wind/light. Apologies for the attempt at advertising the place - this shot is from Park Brow - about 15/20 minutes walk from the road and a favourite viewpoint of mine.
