As Jaded seems to have stumped everyone, here's another picture to have a go at.

Bridge of Khazad-dûm?

Bridge of Khazad-dûm?

No - I think the moss there would be black?

Quote from: Deano on 30 December, 2008, 05:12:51 pm

Aira Force?

No, but there is an impressive waterfall just a few metres upstream.

Deano · « **Reply #1489 on:** 30 December, 2008, 06:54:33 pm »

Looking at it again, I think you'd have to be standing atop the waterfall for it to be Aira Force

Linn of Dee?

Linn of Dee?

No. That would be the one with the road going over it and it is upstream of the waterfall. This is downstream.

Closer than Aira Force though..

downstream from Reekie Linn ?

No, not downstream from Reekie Linn (is there a bridge downstream from the Reekie Linn?)

Closer than the Linn of Dee though.
And on the right side of the grampian watershed (feeds into the Tay, not the Dee)
