Inspirational prints and Coffee at Wast Water, Lake District.
We recently turned some of our old photos into “inspirational quotes” type prints for our home office. Louise found an amusing quote around coffee that made us both smile; Coffee /ˈkɒ.fi/ noun A rich, warm alternative to hating everybody, every morning, forever. A quick search through our photos to find a suitable photo from 2017, some editing in Canva and we had a fun print we framed for the office wall. Location We stumbled upon this little parking spot as we explored the Lake District back in 2017, it made a great stop for coffee in our VW T3 Campervan and an exploration of the shoreline. In the panoramic shot,…
