Due to its popularity the Henry Iddon's Spots-of-Time exhibition, the Lake District photographed at night has been extended to run until 31st August 2008.

'For those of us who love to roam the hills and fells of Lakeland, and whose understanding has been shaped and sharpened by the great poets and writers who made this place their home, I believe we now have a new inspiration to add. Henry Iddon’s photographs give us a new perspective, a new depth of perception, a new way of seeing. The, too, speak to the heart. They are worthy inheritors of a great tradition.'
