Riverside Newburgh North Fife October 2012

Down by the riverside October 2nd Newburgh North Fife, always worth a visit for the sheer tranquil quality of the flowing River Tay.

Mugdrum Island and reed beds Newburgh, Shower rain clouds drifting over the Carse of Gowrie.

Flotsam on the tidal river Tay waters on the riverside, bits of litter, there seems to be no escaping the stuff where ever one goes, even in the Arctic waters there are millions of microscopic plastic particles per cubic metre of what we think is pure water. Apparently synthetic fibres from clothing via washing machines and getting into the food chain. As custodians of the planet we're not doing a very good job.

End of the rainbow, life jacket.
