Ey Burn and Bridge

The track up Glen Ey crosses Ey Burn a few times, this is the second of them with the water looking very blue under a November sky.

Calm Reflections

The mountains surrounding Glen Ey are reflected in the perfectly still waters of Ey Burn. It's not often you get perfect reflections on a moving body of water.

Frozen in Time

In the shadow of the northern slopes of the high mountains hemming in Glen Ey, this lochan is still frozen over. The Cairngorms can be seen at the far end of the Glen now.
