Moss Glen Falls of Granville is a gorgeous horsetail with thin streams of water which choose their path down a slightly angled rock face. The falls start out by bubbling down over some short steps before spreading out to dance down into a light teal pool about 25 feet wide. The falls are located on VT 100, and they are a major contributing factor as to why this road is widely considered to be Vermont's most scenic byway.

Located within the awe-inspiring Lochaber Geopark in the Highlands, the deep valley and towering mountains of Glen Coe were carved out centuries ago by icy glaciers and volcanic explosions. Glen Coe is regarded as the home of Scottish mountaineering and is popular with hillwalkers and climbers.
Looking across Glen Dee in the late afternoon November sun, it's been a fantastic day cycling up Glen Ey. I just had to stop driving when I saw this view between Inverey and Braemar on my way home.
Ricketts Glen decorated in Holiday Colors ... Happy Sliders Sunday :)
Amazing what you can do with a ladder and 20 cans of red spray paint ...
Looking over the Scots Pines and Loch Affric to the mountains in this beautiful Glen.
Taken in October, there will be a fair bit of snow up there by now.

Landscape on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.
It was difficult to get a 'special' shot of this amazing place on such a dull overcast day so I decided to scale a hillock and include some people in the shot for scale.
The Fairy Glen is so named for the simple reason that the area looks a little unearthly. It has nothing to do with fairies, or so they say... It's like a Quirang landslip but in miniature. The heavily worn path on left of frame climbs a little to a basalt topping of the tallest of the outcrops just here. A great vantage point I am sure but, sadly, my ankle wouldn't take the gradient. The spiral of stones is a tourist creation that the locals keep clearing away to try to keep the area as natural as possible.
I imagine in beautiful light the place looks extra magical but, under these clouds, I didn't feel like taking too many shots. I just wanted to sit upon the damp grass and soak in the peace and atmosphere of the Fairy Glen.
Enjoy!
From the summit of Sron nan Gabhar, I'm not even high enough to be at the top of Creag nan Gabhar, my target for the day. However this is the view from Sron which is pretty stunning.
Creag nan Gabhar translates as Rocky Hill of the Goat and stands at 834 meters. Not high enough to be a Munro but it is a Corbett.
Crossing this small burn in Gleann an t-Slugain, I just had to get off the bike to get a shot of it's natural beauty.
Glen Lyon is a glen in the Perth and Kinross region of Scotland. It is the longest enclosed glen in Scotland and runs for 34 miles from Loch Lyon in the west to the village of Fortingall in the east. This glen was also known as "An Crom Ghleann",. The land given over to the MacGregors was Scottish Gaelic: An Tòiseachd.
The name Glen Coe is often said to mean "Glen of Weeping", perhaps with some reference to the infamous Massacre of Glencoe which took place there in 1692.Whatever,the place certainly has an oppressive moody atmosphere.

I stumbled upon something of a hidden glen recently. Narrow, deep and steep-sided, it seemed to have its own microclimate, with amazingly lush vegetation for this time of year.
