The Centenary Stones, also called the Hundred Year Stones, are a modern sculpture set in Calfclose Bay on Derwentwater near Keswick. The stones were placed there to commemorate the Centenary of the National Trust in the Lake District. Carved out of a boulder of volcanic rock from the Borrowdale Valley, the unusual design represents ten segments across ten rings, a century. The high range of lake water levels means a variation from total submergence to standing marooned high on the shore. Here the stones were just in the water and a long exposure image ensured the smoothing of the wavelets on the lake.
