Turner's view of the Lune

 JMW Turner visited the North of England on a number of occasions, painting either for later sale or on commission.  One of the views that he painted was this one of the Lune Valley at the "Crook O'Lune".  Just behind the viewpoint the Lune makes a hairpin bend as it cuts through harder rock on its way to the sea south of Lancaster.
It didn't look like this when he visited, though.  The river is normally only about 100 yards wide, and most of the trees you can see are not even near to the riverbank.  You should also be able to see Ingleborough in the background!
The Lune does have a tendency to flood here: the Crook O'Lune restricts the water flow, and the main gathering grounds are not very far upstream.  Fortunately the floods also recede relatively quickly: 12 hours after this picture was taken the water had returned to normal levels.
