"celebrating the landscapes of the British Isles through photography"
National Parks (UK and Republic of Ireland)
The UK has fifteen National Parks; ten in England, three in Wales and two in Scotland and we adore them all for their own unique beauty. From the water of the Lake District and the Broads to the mountains of the Cairngorms and Peak District and all the different landscapes between, all of the national parks are protected to ensure their beauty lives on for future generations to enjoy.
The Republic of Ireland has six national parks. The first park created in Ireland is Killarney found in Kerry county in 1932, and since then five more national parks have been created and the most recent ones being Ballycroy in Mayo county.

Llyn Llydaw and Glaslyn - Snowdonia
At 1,430 ft above sea level Llyn Llydaw is a sterile glacial lake of Snowdon in its eastern valley Cwm Dyli. It has an industrial air about it, and it has the Miners’ track crossing its eastern end by a causeway that was built in 1853 when the lake was lowered. Covering an area of 110 acres, it has a depth of approximately 190 ft at the head of the lake, but becomes shallower due to the morainic deposits by the ancient Llydaw glacier.
