2022 09 08 - burn in spate 1
After the deluge
Then it rained… a lot! And I planned to go back to Buckie Braes and capture an image of the burn in spate – at the same place as the shot I showed on Sunday. But… we couldn’t get near it. The volume of rainfall had flooded the area to the point where it was impassable.
So, we tried another route… and it was flooded too.
Finally, we splashed through the margins of some flooding to get this shot. It’s the same burn, just a different location.
I hope that the photo captures the power of the torrent. It was spectacular to see, but it also caused a lot of problems for people in the neighbourhood.
