.........well not quite, but that is the name that Lord Byron, famous writer and poet gave to the area of Matlock Bath in Derbyshire. The view here is from the terrace of the Summit cafe and bar where I had my lunch overlooking the valley and the River Derwent down below.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

Although it is no Switzerland to me, and is so typical Brittish in my view, i do love the image a lot. The meandering river through the valley... wonderfull image.
