Dream
Dream was captured on a quiet summer evening hike up to Catbells.
Skelgill bank is the broad ridge one reaches on the way up to Catbells. It is also the broad ridge that can conveniently be mistaken for the top of Catbells, if you are a weary first-time hiker who underestimated the effort involved in scaling the latter (better to say you got mixed up than to admit you were knackered - you wouldn’t be the first).
Dream was taken in July 2018. The reverse view, looking back towards Skiddaw is usually the one that catches the eye (and the image Fine is one of those). There was something on this midsummer evening however, in the sky above Dale Head and across to Robinson, in the quality of the clouds - something like smudges of cotton wool, or smoke, or a little of both, or nothing of either, but something - that transfixed. It hangs as a 30” x 20” framed giclee print in The Wynd in Hexham, and in the Lingholm Kitchen in Portinscale.
‘Dream’ can be purchased here as a fine art giclee print. More information on sizing options, production process and shipping is available lower down this page.
The view from Skelgill and Catbells north towards Skiddaw (as seen in Fine on this site) is one of the most popular in the Lake District, and with good reason. On this particular evening however, the slight haze and cloud formations over Robinson and the Newlands Valley were stunning.

All prints ordered through The Wynd Photographic are fine art prints. That is to say, they are produced using the giclee process in combination with a smooth, archival, 300gsm cotton based paper by Fotospeed.
-
Once a print has been ordered, it is either produced by Pete in his own workshop or, if scale dictates, via an independent local print house he collaborates with regularly. Pete oversees all printing before performing quality checks, adding his signature, and packaging the finished work at the Wynd Gallery.
