EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Laggan Avenue on the Caledonian Canal, circa 1910s. As you travel from Fort William towards Inverness, this picturesque avenue marks a significant moment in your journey, serving as the entrance to Laggan Avenue just before the canal narrows and winds its way through the breathtaking Loch Oich. The serene waters of Loch Lochy, with their mirror-like reflection of the surrounding Scottish Highlands, stretch out in the background, while the valley below adds to the scene's idyllic charm. In the foreground, a classic steamboat, reminiscent of a paddlesteamer, gracefully makes its way along the canal, its plume of smoke rising against the clear blue sky. The Caledonian Canal, a marvel of engineering, was built in the late 18th and early 19th centuries to provide a navigable waterway between the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. This image showcases the timeless beauty of the canal and the Scottish landscape, offering a glimpse into the past as you travel through the heart of the Scottish Highlands. As you take in the tranquil scene, the gentle hum of the steamboat's engine and the rhythmic sound of the water against the shore transport you back to a simpler time, inviting you to savor the moment and appreciate the natural splendor that surrounds you.
