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.
This photo is available in a range of sizes, as a print on Fujicolor Professional DP II Lustre photographic paper. This paper has a semi-matte finish that enhances the colours and details of the photo, while also providing excellent resistance to fading and fingerprints.
