A flood of light outshines the massif of the Tannheim
mountains in the evening. View from the Gimpel 2173m over
the Rote Flüh to the Tannheimer Tal.
Usually the floods are in the spring, but this year it has been raining continuously since July, as a result of which the rivers overflowed their banks and the lakes are constantly at the flood limit.
Doors through the Richmond flood wall, which was built to keep the James River from flooding the city. On the other side is the 51.7 mile sign where the Capital Bike Trail starts on it's way to Williamsburg.
This is a photo of spring bushes in a diagonal composition with the reflection of alder bushes on a flooded meadow.
Let's break all the Professional Photography Rules - Nobody's paying me to do it, or not to, so why not? The River Tern in flood, Shropshire. I await the 'floods of complaint' - spot the two tiny people for added scale.
Tiber flood in Roma......sun is coming, finally!
straight from the camera!
a hug to all! (EXPLORE#425)
Flooded Christchurch Quay in the pouring rain, and the River Stour. Not sure I'd sit on that seat at the moment.
The River Avon in Bristol flooding due to the super high Spring tides, with The Clifton Suspension Bridge and Hotwells in the background.
With a difference of 15-metres/49-foot between high and low tide, the River Avon has the second largest tidal range in the world. Only the Bay of Fundy in Canada has a higher tide, with an average of 16.8 metres/55-foot)
Back in the days, El Paso Texas was quite prone to flash flooding during the monsoon season (June 15 - September 30). The rain would come down in torrents, filling the streets.
I can remember going down to my dad's stores (Fox Plaza in particular) and helping to put out the sand bags to keep the store from getting flooded.
Fox Plaza still exists today but it's a far cry from the place I remember as a child.
I took this during a devastating flood in my town when over 8 inches of rain fell in a short period of time. I never really shared any of the photos, just a few. This is a well known field where many events happen and it was completely flooded.

Snowmelt floods many fields every spring, and it can take several weeks for some of them to dry out. I like the barbed wire reflection in this temporary pond near Pegram, Idaho. HFF.
Here comes the water
All I knew and all I believed
Are crumbling images
That no longer comfort me
I scramble to reach higher ground
Some order and sanity
Or something to comfort me
So I take what is mine,and hold what is mine
Suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine
Soon the water will come
And claim what is mine
I must leave it behind
And climb to a new place now
This ground is not the rock I thought it to be
Thought I was high
Thought I was free
I thought I was there
Divine destiny
I was wrong
This changes everything
The water is rising up on me
Thought the sun would come deliver me
But the truth has come to punish me instead
The ground is breaking down right under me
Cleanse and purge me
In the water

Quick(ish) and set-up.
Hope everyone had a good Christmas and hope 2016 brings some good things to everyone.
Side Note : I've been quiet lately, as it was a fairly traumatic end to 2015 (being made redundant, finding/getting new job, then the Cumbrian floods hitting us). So I'm hoping 2016 things will settle down.
flood maas 2011 - niederländischen Provinz Limburg...unfortunately much high water, which does not embellish humans and animals at the beginning of the year :-(....
..even if the sky tries to balance it out with its beautiful colors. :-)
Miniature reed and algae-mat structures created by a flood.
Flooding raised the water levels, raising floating algae mats above the plants. When the water eventually receded, it left the mats draped over the stalks and the weight of the wet mats bent them. Eventually, the algae mats dried and shrank, pulling the stalks still closer together, resulting in the "teepees".
Thank you to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated.
Taken last Monday, this was the view from our bedroom window as the fields behind the house flooded due to rain that fell all weekend long. It always looks nice and gives us a lakeside property for a while.
Today, the sun is shining a bit ! There's hardly been a day during the last month or so when it hasn't rained - hard ! The land is sodden with water. Farm animals and horses in the fields are standing in mud up to their ankles, looking cold and miserable. This is North Warwickshire, in the Midlands of England. Up in the north of England, it has been far worse, as I'm sure you all know or have experienced.
Grabbed this shot on a brief outing after meeting a friend. For once, it wasn't raining and the sky looked beautiful as I came home - so off I went with my camera !
A panorama of two landscape images. Colours were like this - just a bit of 'tweaking' here and there, dodging and burning etc. and a slight texture of my own applied to the sky. Hard to remember what I did now !
After the floods, the levels of otherwise intermittent Lake Cerknica was unusually high. Photo: Jasmina Pogačnik.
Wistow has flooded again, what was an annual event is becoming a weekly. I was luck with catching some sunshine this afternoon
Desperation for a Southern Crunch Sandwich. This determined cyclist was deciding to turn back or drive on. Areas of Nova Scotia recieved up to 200 mm of precipitation over the last 24 hours causing many washout situations. Quite a comparison to the major forest fires that reaked havoc on the Province just two weeks previous.
Though this part of the road was not underwater during recent heavy rainfall, the shoulder became a real mess due to lots of running water going downhill. The water ended up undercutting the pavement. I called the authorities when I discovered this unsafe situation.

― Shiro Amano,
I breathe you in
And in a flood of light
I know I was never lost
I was never lost
