Loft Crag and Langdale valley from the summit of Pike o' Stickle. The square crop on this photo really enhances composition (imho) with nice strong diagonal lead in and valley heading off to the horizon.

Pike o'Stickle is famous for it's neolithic stone axe "factory", where very hard volcanic greenstone was crafted into hand axes thousands of years ago. The same neolithic people would have built the stone circle at Castlerigg too.
