This aerial photograph by Emma Trevarthen showcases the majestic Ribblehead Viaduct, also known as Batty Moss Viaduct, located on the Settle-Carlisle Railway in North Yorkshire. The viaduct stands tall and proud against a backdrop of pristine snow-covered landscapes, creating a truly enchanting scene.
