Well, literally a change of scenery. I decided to show what else I can do, beyond photographs of beautiful women.
This is the Buchanty Spout, near Crieff in Perthshire. Its a salmon leap.
It does make me wonder if salmon are completely insane though. While I was there photographing, there were salmon trying to leap up this torrent of water to get back up stream to their spawning grounds. The river was full and wild after days of heavy rain and, as you can see it would definitely be called “rapid”, but there they were, the salmon, taking a run, or swim, at the waterfall, hoping to leap up and past the next section so they can get up river for a bit of reproducing before they drop dead from exhaustion.
Anyway, enjoy. There are a couple of other pictures of the river that feeds this, so have a look.
