The glow!

The Murray river and Mannum in South Australia are very much in the news at the moment due to the rising floodwaters and huge volume of water flowing downstream. This older view from when levels were normal shows a lagoon that is to one side of the main river itself and also a bird sanctuary with a small jetty leading out to a bird hide. All of this jetty would be very much under water by now. The sunrise shown here from around six months ago was an amazing one with deep glows appearing all over the sky from east to west. The cabin deck that this was taken from would also be very close to going under. Many of the other cabins in the park have been temporarily moved to higher ground and I believe the main street is closed due to a huge levee being built up the middle of the road. Let's hope it all passes soon and their lives can get back to normal, and that they are all high and dry for Christmas.

 

Happy Nice Wonderful Clouds Tuesday!
