Lakes and rivers

If you only do one thing this month...

WINNER Adrian Squirrell

Left I was on the island of La Palmas and

went on a two-hour hike along a gorge

to visit a colourful waterfall. When

I arrived, the stream that was running

away from it was far more interesting –

it looked like liquid gold because of all

the iron dissolved in it, which you could

smell in the air. I decided to use my

drone to get an aerial shot of the ‘golden’

stream as it snaked along the gorge.

Opposite (top) It was a lovely morning

in October in the New Forest. There

was a bit of mist and the potential for

a great sky, so I headed to Markway

Bridge where there is a stream in an

open area that off ers a good chance

of refl ections. The sky and light that

morning combined to give some great

photo opportunities.
