Lt. General Wade’s Bridge at Aberfeldy in the Breadalbane region of Highland Perthshire (Breadalbane means “Highland Scotland” in Gaelic). Shot taken on Saturday 20th December 08 in the middle of our winter. Designed by William Adam, Scotland’s best architect. The total cost was £3,596 or, in today’s terms, over £1m. ”... a freestone bridge over the Tay, of five arches, nearly 400ft. in length, the middle arch 60 feet wide, the starlings of oak and the piers and landbreasts founded on piles shod with iron….” (House of Commons Journal, 7th February 1734). The bridge was first opened to traffic at the end of October 1733. Wade regarded it the greatest of his considerable achievements in road-making. In 9 years he had personally supervised the construction of over 250 miles of military roads in the Highlands – the first engineered roads in Britain since Roman times. lt is now the only one of Wade’s 35 major bridges to remain in use as a public highway. Built for 18th century wheeled carriages, it survives to the 21st century as a great memorial to a great roadbuilding engineer. Wade’s Bridge is a Category A listed structure of historic importance (HB Number 20861) under the care of Historic Scotland. The River Tay, Scotland longest river, meanders across Scotland from Loch Tay before flowing out to sea at the Firth of Tay.

This seat should be overlooking a small lake and surrounding parkland which is part of the gardens that I look after at work (on the outskirts of York), but at the moment it is all under several feet of floodwater thanks to the river Ouse bursting it’s banks. The water is slowly receding though, last week this seat was completely submerged – and then some! 9th December 2009 / Nikon D40 – Sigma 10-20mm
This is Geronimo, my neighbor. Taken just behind the house last winter when we moved here from town. And WHAT a view! Although it was snowing when I took this, snow effects are added… as are Night Effects. I took this by daylight. Geronimo has since moved away but there are many other horses on the ranch. Doc, his father, has this paddock now.

The sun is rising in the forest and all of the creatures that like to rise before dawn, start to magically appear in the morning light. The mist starts to rise and the birds call to one another. It is all so beautiful and breath taking to behold. We are constant witnesses of the glory of creation and its magical mysteries, one of our true gifts as the lucky beings that inhabit planet earth. Over 500 Views, thanks so much, everyone! Original background image taken at Union Creek off of highway 62 in Southern Oregon. / Working with layers in photoshop, all deer were added as composites, using Topaz Remask2 to cut out the deer. The forest already had light rays slanting into it, I increased the light to look like sunrise by using the photoshop filter, render and using omni then increasing the light until I was happy with it.

Out for a pleasant days shooting on a rather grey winters day on 7th February 2010 with some other RB members in Edinburgh Scotland. We walked up this path from Holyrood via Calton Road. At this point (looking back the way we came up) there is a break in the path, the choices are, continue on to Regent Road (behind me), head back down to Calton Road (the right fork) or take the left fork up to the Burns Monument. Incidently, I took the left fork and turned left at the top (after taking a few shots of the monument) and caught up with my companions a little further along Regent Road.

Almost the last lilies to bloom in our garden each summer, the Casa Blancas put on a performance well worth waiting for! They are tall, lavish in their profusion, and exude a fragrance that rivals the finest perfume. They are high on my list of “keepers”! Watercolor painted on Arches 140 cold press, 21”x 14-1/2” Permission to use this image for any reason must first be granted in writing by the artist.
With Brian Haslam’s permission, I’ve painted his beautiful pink and magenta magnolia called “Marwood Spring” here. Thank you so much, Brian! Painted on Arches 140 Cold Press with mostly Daniel Smith’s quinacridone colors. And I hope you will be as thrilled as I was with Brian’s RB portfolio! It’s gorgeous!
