Rivers, streams and canals

An almost hidden waterfall gem near the tiny village of Keld.

After having passed through Glencoe and over the Ballachulish Bridge I find myself on the banks of the River Leven looking south towards Beinn a' Bheithir Glencoe. A fabulous spot if not for the constant rumble of traffic above. The road from here towards these mountains splits to either Oban or Glencoe. If I was to travel behind me here I would end up in Fort William just a mere 12 miles (19km) north. The river here has flown down through Loch Leven and then into Loch Linnhe just to my right and from there down to the Atlantic Ocean. PiPs Enjoy full screen. Have a good day.

“Is it real or an illusion? I’ll let you be the judge. In any case I hope you enjoy another reflective shot from me” = My original Panoramio description. The AI of seventeen years ago. (˚◡˚) A resurrected Panoramio photo here, uploaded onto Panoramio in Feb 2009, On looking at my Panoramio screen print, I see it was viewed 3399 times – quite a contrast from our little Ipernity site nowadays. This building was demolished some years back now to make way for a new housing development. I have no idea of its original purpose only that it was just two floors of open space maybe used for some kind of fabrication or canal goods storage facility as it fronted the local Huddersfield canal.

Sometimes called Birchen Clough Waterfall. After days of heavy rain it was time to get my boots back on and try another go at capturing one of my local waterfalls in slow motion. Here is a 1/15th sec shot via my 3 stop NF filter. Enjoy the week.

We are just outside Durham here, on the River Wear. A good place to take a canoe or paddle board for miles of fun on the water. Notice the smoke in the near distance as it creeps into this river area. The smoke created by a nearby wheat field going up in flames. At the moment it does not concern these children or the dog but it was to get worse. Best viewed full screen Enjoy the day.

A day trip to Durham is an unforgettable experience. We see here the River Wear looping around the Romanesque Durham Cathedral and Norman Durham Castle. There is much to do and like about this old city.
