Rocky stream, Finland.
A visit to familiar rapids after a long time. The view was surprisingly green considering there is already autumn color elsewhere.
It's nice to have these kind of places nearby where you can see seasons change and usually find some scene to photograph.
Looking down the stream running through the main (lower) archaeological site of the monastery of Glendalough (County Wicklow, in eastern Ireland), on a cloudy midday in mid-May.
The Valley of the Two Lakes -- the meaning of the Irish "Gleann dá Loch" -- is nestled on the eastern side of the Wicklow Mountains, located within the Wicklow Mountains National Park / Páirc Náisiúnta Sléibhte Chill Mhantáin. This stream runs beside the monastic site of Glendalough, which was initially founded in the 6th century, by St. Kevin, and is now maintained by the Office of Public Works (Heritage Ireland).
Archaeological evidence supports the understanding that streams, springs, and other bodies of water were of importance in pre-Christian Celtic religion. Walking around Glendalough, it is not difficult to believe that it could have held spiritual significance even before St Kevin's settling there.
