The River Ness behind Holm Mills

The embankment covered with yellow flowers separates the Caledonian Canal from the river Ness just before the canal veers north away from the river. Just below the embankment the white water reveals the end of a long weir crossing the river diagonally to meet the far bank here. The building on the left is part of Holm Mills, now converted to retail shops. An overhead electric power line crosses the river here.

Yellow flowers? I presume you mean those darned invasive and prickly gorse bushes. In their favour, the flowers do have a lovely fragrance on a sunny day in Springtime.
