A different time/angle...This old bridge spans the River Dee near Braemar, Scotland.... Originally built for military access it now provides the inspiration for many paintings and photographs.... Many visitors take advantage of quiet walks along the banks of the river amid a scene of exquisite beauty...Pleases enjoy

Lovely composition, Mick, especially that intriguing mix of pastel and stormy sky.

I find your image is a little dark on my screen, so have applied Fill Flash and also straightened the central buttress of the bridge, both of which in my opinion, have made this appealing scene even more appealing.

NICE work, as ever, sir!

Very nice scene Mick, I've been there myself, but I had more sunny weather. But I know what you mean with an inspiration for painters and photographers. Lovely picture!!

For the time being Michael [photoimagery], myself and Boris the dog could live in a tent as there is lots of space [unless private LOL] available. Later on we could build us a little timber hut in Polish Tatra Mountains style perhaps. LOL
This would give us a lot of time to view and enjoy ...

The greens are something else in this Mick, even the moss in the brickwork on the bridge stands out. I think Anne-Marie's right about the straightening and there's a touch of colour noise in the foreground, but it's nothing given that the composition, viewpoint (I have an image of you hunting around for the right spot for ages) and colour combinations are just outstanding.

What a great image. I love the darker tones. It's what I wuld expect with the sky like that. The bridge looks great and that little red building peeking out from behind the trees is intriguing. Perfect framing and foreground coloring. Another good one Mick.

My apologies Mick, I meant to comment sooner. the focus on this shot is tremendous, and the colors on the bridge are so subtle, yet add so much to the picture. Bravo!

Reminds me of the kind of adventures I used to dream of taking when I was younger! I love it. Again the colors and contrast are fantastic as always.
