River Dynamics

From this photo post you get a great view up the River Avon framed between the outskirts of Tomintoul on one side and the ruined farmstead of Lynachork on the other. The river Avon is the key feature in this scene, draining from a vast catchment it can change from a relative trickle to a raging torrent in times of heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt. The photographs you take at this photo post will record the changing shape of the land along the raised river terraces as the river slowly, but dramatically, shifts its course.
