Callander, Perthshire , Scotland beneath dark and stormy skies. This was a day of intermittent showers and sunny spells but standing in the park with the storm brewing you could feel the stillness that comes just before a storm breaks. It was worth chancing your luck to take in the atmosphere and enjoy the trees and clouds reflected in the water. Fortunately for me the storm was all drama and not too much of the wet stuff.

This stretch of water is Eas Gobhain, meaning 'the smith's cascade', and is an outflow of Loch Venachar which joins with Garbh Uisge together forming the River Teith. Turning to my left from here I would see a bridge and maps show this as the River Teith from that point.

Callander is the known as the eastern gateway to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park

I have added a song by Gabriella - "Cloud in the Sky"
