Taken in January 2005, just south of Perth, Scotland. I looked out the window here late one evening to see a “cloud” of luminous green oriented downwards – “that’s no cloud!” and 5mins later I was a couple of miles away in the middle of nowhere on the road south of Moncrieffe Hill, admiring the pretty greens and reds :)

The standing stone behind the church at Spittal of Glenshee , looking along Glen Lochsie in the distance. Yes, a grad-magenta filter was involved – so shoot me ;)
-
Looking down the gorge from the lower bridge, Falls of Bruar . I’m particularly impressed by the colours and the smooth glistening rocks. This area is rich in geology (an extension of the Loch Tay fault?): there’s a lot of limestone and other metamorphic sedimentary rocks (layered slate, possibly some schist) and a bit of red sandstone nearby, all folded making rakish angles. Taken on the Shen Hao 5×4” large-format camera with Fuji Velvia (old RVP emulsion) film.

Overgrown with stinging nettles this bench sits on the rhododendron covered banks at the mouth of the lovely river Tay in Kenmore, Scotland. Parties mark the start of its famous salmon fishing season here and it looks like the fishermen then waste no time sitting down and just wade in !! :)) See also misty loch tay taken a few hundred yards away where the river goes into the loch.. . a really beautiful spot! / ;))

Full view of Loch Ordie Lodge towards the end of our hike, in the setting sun, with the loch’s edges skirted in ice. In August,a salmon fisher staying at the Lodge, in his wisdom decided he’d go for a swim across the loch!! The water was so cold he had to turn back after 20 metres!! These higher lochs very seldom get warm enough to even dip your toes in!!

Looking up Loch Tay from the Kenmore Bridge which crosses the River Tay, at Kenmore Village in the Breadalbane region of Highland Perthshire (Breadalbane means “Highland Scotland” in Gaelic). Taken on Saturday 20th December 08 in the middle of our winter. There is no snow at this latitude, but the Loch is high swamping the trees at the left of the shot. Loch Tay is the source of the River Tay which meanders across Scotland before flowing out to sea at the Firth of Tay. Three bracketed JPGs converted to HDR in Photomatix.

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 spectacular sixteenth century castle has been restored by the Menzies Clan Society. Seat of the Chiefs of Clan Menzies for over 400 years, it was involved in the turbulant history of the Highlands and here Bonnie Prince Charlie rested on his way to Culloden in 1746. Architecturally fascinating, it is a splendid example of the transition between earlier rugged fortress and later mansion house. Castle Menzies stands north of the River Tay at Weem on the B846, one and half miles from Aberfeldy in the Breadalbane region of Highland Perthshire (Breadalbane means “Highland Scotland” in Gaelic).

A very old (early17th C) bridge over the river in a small town called Alyth in Perthshire. Alyth goes back to 17th Century and was one of the small villages where the caterans ( castle rustlers) used to come through – it is on the Cateran trail – a 64 mile trail which you can hike in 5 days stopping over at various hostelries en route. Most hikers find it more convenient to do different sections of the trail each time and return home. I have done 2 1/2 sections so far. Pack Bridges were so named as they were originally used as crossing points over the river by animals and carts . Best viewed large

So many shots of this day – this was taken once we reached one of the summits and went towards the ridge – actually seeking a way down without skating across the icy snow. The strong Arctic winds had taken some of the snow from the tops and deposited it in the quieter areas leaving 3 feet drifts which then got scuplted into beautiful shapes —until the next layer of snow.

This interesting life-size metal piper can be found at Kenmore Village in the Breadalbane region of Highland Perthshire (Breadalbane means “Highland Scotland” in Gaelic). Non Scots always seem interested in what is worn under the kilt, but as any true Scotsman will tell you, nothing is worn under the kilt, it is all in perfect working order!!

Super hike today in beautiful weather . We drove to Dunkeld and then hiked through the Atholl Estates to Mill dam and well beyond. We climbed up to east peak overlooking Dunkeld and on the downhill of the crags made our way through the ‘Pass’ and past two Caves. A bright Spring day .

twenty seven years on this ungodly earth / ending, sat down by the river / absorbing the small sips now taking their berth / on the tasting buds, keen to deliver the living in trees are now passing to ground / and winter stands waiting in line / and the stream trickles on, in knowledge it’s bound / for pitlochry, til barrels entwine an edradour malt slides faint troubles and fears / away, ships past stormy seas / so here I raise a glass to the twenty eighth year / may it flow as the river decrees —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- Location: Pitlochry, Perthshire, Scotland © Donald Cameron 2009 / Monophotography.co.uk
