A Timeless Landscape of the Peak District

Nestled within the rolling hills of the Peak District National Park, Ladybower Reservoir unfolds like a painting of rural England at its finest. This image captures the serene beauty of this man-made lake, where the calm waters stretch towards the horizon, reflecting the moody sky above. The gentle curves of the landscape are adorned with a patchwork of fields, separated by historic dry-stone walls, a testament to the region’s agricultural heritage.

The sweeping view from this elevated vantage point reveals the graceful arches of the Ashopton Viaduct, standing as both an engineering marvel and an elegant focal point. Framed by a mix of evergreen and deciduous woodlands, the scene is enriched with the warm hues of autumn, where copper-toned foliage contrasts against the deep greens of the surrounding forests. Beyond the reservoir, distant hills fade into a soft mist, adding a dreamlike quality to the composition.

This tranquil setting is steeped in history. Beneath the still waters of Ladybower lies the lost village of Derwent, which was submerged in the 1940s as part of the reservoir’s creation. During times of low water levels, remnants of the village’s church spire and stone buildings occasionally resurface, offering a haunting reminder of the past.

For lovers of landscape photography, heritage, and the natural beauty of the British countryside, this print provides a breath-taking glimpse into one of England’s most cherished locations.

Important Information

Cropping

Please note that some cropping may occur depending on the size you choose for your photo. This is because different sizes have different aspect ratios, which affect how the photo fits on the paper, canvas or glass. I will try to preserve as much of the original photo as possible, but some edges may be cut off to avoid distortion or blank spaces, or to accomodate the chosen size.

Colour Reproduction

Also, please be aware that colours may vary from what you see on your screen to what you receive in print. This is because different screens have different settings and calibrations, which affect how colours are displayed. Additionally, printing techniques and materials may also cause some slight differences in colour reproduction and saturation. The labs I print with use high-quality printers and papers to ensure that the photo looks as close to the original as possible, but some minor variations are inevitable and normal. If you have any questions or concerns about the colours of your photo, please contact me before you place your order.

Returns and Refunds

Due to the nature of my products, I do not offer refunds or returns after the sale. However, I understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. If your order arrives damaged in transit, please contact me immediately with a photo of the damaged item. I will replace the damaged item at no additional cost to you. Please note: I cannot be held responsible for items lost or damaged in transit.

I hope you enjoy your photo and thank you for choosing SRB Photos.
