Linn of the White Cart Water, Glasgow ‘Linn’ is Gaelic for a pool, often associated with the pool at the foot of a waterfall. I was amazed to discover such a wild wee river and gorge right in the middle of Glasgow’s South side. The sparkly sun after rain helped, too! “We all move on […]
Snow reflections on the banks of the River Spey, near Aviemore Taken during last January’s big freeze, with ice ‘pancakes’ drifting along on the current.
