Forgotten Glen, a photo from Aberdeenshire, Scotland

Photographer's Note

Glenkindie is a small glen to the north-west of a village bearing the same name, located on the A97 between Glenbuchat and Kildrummy.

The Kindie Burn flows the whole length of the glen, alongside a typical Scottish single-track road.

There are no signs other than for Rinmore, a settlement at the end of the surfaced stretch of the road. It is not easy to find any mention of the glen as such anywhere.

Long forgotten and well worth a visit.

Hello Peter,

it's such a great landscape. I think it represents exactly my thoughts of Scotland: green pasture land, cows, dark black clouds singing the rain song...

I like it very much!

I like this capture

The scene if i did not know better would be more suited to the rolling dales of yorkshire

Its interesting to note that Harry noted cows as a big part of the Scottish scenery

Its dependant on which part of Scotland as the further northern areas hold very little cattle but many sheep.

Good contrast
Well framed
cheers
