It's All Whisky Under The Bridge

Old Packhorse Bridge over the river Dulnain at Carrbridge in Cairngorms National Park, Scotland.
The bridge was built in 1717 and is the oldest stone bridge in the Highlands. In 1829 it was badly damaged in severe flooding known as 'muckle spate' and remains in this condition to this day.

The Strathspey area being famed for its whisky I have added the link :-

Terrific composition I love the yellow gorse centre of thebridge,
great builders for the bridge to have stood the test of time,
Better large without doubt.

Wow, this is so pretty, Carol. Even damaged, it's a beautiful bridge. Nice musical match for sure.

Your Sigma lens looks like it works a treat too.)

Thank you very much Karen. Really appreciated. There are a few good bridge songs out there but I chose this this because of the whisky connection. I have not used the Sigma lens that much but have been quite pleased with some of the results so far. Wish you a good week ahead

Glad it's whisky under the bridge...you'd be hard pressed to knock back a tot or two and travel over it...:-)
It is a fantastic shot, Carol. Love it.

Ecobird ^club has replied to Diana Australis ^club

Good evening and many thanks Diana. It doesn't look that safe to me even without the tot or two although I understand that in the summer months some hardy locals jump off the bridge into the river. I am not sure if that makes them hardy or foolhardy, ....or maybe that really is whisky under the bridge!!
