Sligachan, Isle of Skye
Taken at Sligachan looking toward the old road. The colours are fantasy but such a beautiful fantasy.

Ice formations on stones in the ‘Adige’ river bed; Trento, Verona, Italy.
Isn’t this beautiful and amazing?
Rivers need to flow and damming them has a cost. Honour the flow of your feelings and see where they take you. Unleash the torrent of your creativity and you’ll connect with a better you along the way. You have nothing to lose except fear.

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.
