Beautiful moment to take this shot, the snow melting and all the browns and yellows coming back... It's a wonderful scene!

This is the time of the year to get these images – before the snow goes from the hill tops but while most of it has gone from the lower slopes. I like the composition a lot. It is fascinating landscape and the patches of snow highlight landscape features to good effect. It is though far from being a wild landscape; it is one of the designed landscapes which are feature of many of the Upper Deeside estates, but it is none the worse for that. The designers did a good job and a location a bit further downstream was famously used for a John West salmon advert a few years ago, looking as it does like the wilds of Alaska.

This is gorgeous Stewart - a wonderful view down the valley, it'd be interesting to see this view in summer...

Wonderful scene .. agree with Mairead, first thing that came to my mind ... eyes get led all over the image!

A splendid view and maybe spring is on it way. Well seen and agree it does have a Lord of the Rings feel to it.

A fine view of this meandering river - looks like
a scene from Lord of the Rings
