Coldstream bridge, the bridge to gods country.......

Welcome to Scotland…..... This scene is the bridge over the River Tweed into Scotland and Coldstream, the first Border town. Just a bit more to tell you about this scene because som people may not realise just how fast this water is travelling. This is a seriously fast moving and deep stretch of water with a weir 50 meters the other side of the bridge. The river bottom is smooth pebble and theres usually a breeze blowing upstream too. This took days to get the shot I wanted with about 250 shots taken to produce just 2, however, the winter sun shone nicely for me all day. Enjoy.
