A View from Outside the Box

Here’s the other side of nature.  You’re used to seeing beautiful soft and appealing photos of the northwest of Scotland from me, majestic mountains and serene scenes.  Today you’re looking at Cluanie, a river angry and violent.  In another photo it was in the process of taking out a centuries old stone bridge.  This is also Scotland - wild, untameable and very powerful.  Too much rain in too short a time and this is the result.  Nature strikes its own balance and we can only shelter and watch.
