Acers in the Lakes

I don't think of acers as being a typical Lakeland tree,for obvious reasons, but when on top of Loughrigg Fell, it became clear that they're very popular with local residents. Little patches of deep red are visible all over Ambleside and surrounding areas.

Here is one of the biggest and most beautiful, from close up in the garden of the Baptist Church (I think) in Ambleside. For a small tree, it makes a big impact.
