The Neelum River, or Kishanganga River, is a river in the Kashmir region of Pakistan and India. It originates in Ganderbal district of Jammu and Kashmir in India, flows through the Neelam Valley in Pakistan's Azad Kashmir, where parts of its course fall along the Line of Control, before merging with the Jhelum River near the city of Muzaffarabad.
The river has traditionally been known as the Kishanganga River ( Urdu: دریائے کِشن گنگا) and is still known as such in India; after the partition of India in 1947, the river was renamed the Neelum River (Urdu: دریائے نیلم, in Pakistan in 1956.
Splitting my journey up to the highlands, a stop in the centre of the city of Glasgow was needed. Opposite my hotel was BBC Scotland.
River at dawn!
water in your clear eyes!
fall -rise!- in the blue
transparent, almost white.
Sky in the dawn river
-my love in your lazy eyes-
oh, shipwreck -ascend!-
always deeper! higher!
...River at dawn...

Malacca, or Melaka as it is called today, was an important port along the Chinese maritime silk route during the Ming dynasty and it was visited by Portuguese, Dutch and British ships too. Today, the river has been separated from the sea (the Straits of Melaka) by a barrier to control tides and the only boats that go up and down the river are cruise-boats carrying tourists.
I placed a bouquet of river grass in front of a black background and made this image while intentionally moving the camera vertically.
This was taken looking towards the lock gates on the River Cam near Waterbeach. I have given it a sepia finish and then aged the photograph with a textured layer and then blended them.
Dubna river is the right tributary of the Volga. Length 165 km. the catchment area is 5474 km2. The source is in the Vladimir region, on the Klinsko-Dmitrovskaya upland, the mouth is 9 km below the Ivankovskaya dam. The left tributaries flowing from the Klinsko-Dmitrovskaya Upland are numerous: r. Kunya, Kobzha, Shibovka, Velia, Yakot, Sister, etc.; there are few right tributaries, the most significant are the Sulot and Nushpolka. In the upper reaches, Dubna flows in a valley with steep banks, indented by the mouths of small flowing rivers and streams. On the flat Upper Volga lowland, the valley becomes wide. The floodplain is heavily swampy, covered with stunted birch forests and alder bogs. These are the favorite places of hunters. In the spring, the river overflows for several kilometers and does not enter the banks for a long time. In some places the channel is straightened by artificial canals. Below the Veli river mouth, the valley is less boggy. The most interesting part of it is the area of the village of Verbilki, where the Privolzhsko-Dubninsky State Reserve was located (now closed). Here, on the ancient dunes, there are various types of forests with very rich flora and fauna. Below the confluence of the Sestra River, Dubna becomes a deep and wide river. The most significant settlements are Verbilki, Yudino, Starikovo; the city of Dubna is located near the mouth.
For obvious reasons of incredible and fantastic autumn colours, this serie dedicated to the source of the Urederra river will be in colour.

Nice early Autumn walk with the leaves scattered on the rocks near the river.
Seems a bit weird calling it a river at this stage its only about 4 miles into its journey after running off from the hills above.
I found this swan resting behind the old gristmill at Connetquot RIver State Park Preserve. As soon as I put the camera bag down on the ground the swan awoke and started to move....... Coolpix to the rescue!
