This photo was taken at Ferrybank ...Waikato river Hamilton NZ
Ferrybank is named because it is where punts across the river used to land prior to bridges being constructed in Hamilton. The Celebrating Age Centre is located where an old town hall once stood – this was the social hub of the original Borough. In the early 1900s the Ferrybank was planted and the band rotunda, which was occasionally used on Sunday afternoons, was installed. The Embassy Theatre was once located in the park where the Riff Raff statue now stands. The Hamilton Rowing Club has been located at Ferrybank since 1905.
I have shot at this location a number of times. Here is a slightly different angle. Morpeth, New South Wales. Australia.
Tratto di ciclabile lungo il canale Villoresi, meta delle mie passeggiate in bici, ma anche mia pista di allenamento per il running.
Thank you all for your comments and faves.
...at this point between Haworth and Oakworth, West Yorkshire, England.
The River Worth is a tributary of the River Aire, which it joins at the end of the Worth Valley in Keighley.
One nice thing about going into fall is that it is not too much of sacrifice to get up for the sunrise.
Wasn't the most amazing sunrise I've ever witnessed, but with the beautifully calm water, it made for some nice reflections.

I spotted this beautifully curving rock pool quite late on when the sunset had already developed, but I had a great few minutes trying to use it! Rivers and roads by the Head and the Heart seems fine, either in the pool or on the sides!!!
The Worm (German: Wurm) is a small river or creek at the border between Germany and the Netherlands. This shot is a long exposure of 50" and was taken from the Dutch side.
This photo was taken near McKercher Park.
The Calapooia (cala - POO - ya) River is an 80-mile (130 km) tributary of the Willamette River in the state of Oregon. The Calapooia was named for the Kalapuya (also spelled Calapooia), a tribe of Native Americans.
The McKercher Park to Brownsville section of the Calapooia River is 7 miles long and is, according to American Whitewater, a class I section of whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Oregon tend to be more challenging than the national average, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable.
Looking north up this special river from Mt. Kerskelin Goat Lick Viewpoint. No mountain goats this day but the view was wonderful.
"The Athabasca River is the longest river in Alberta (1,538 km). The Athabasca River headwaters are located on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains , at the Columbia Icefield. The first 168 km (located in Jasper National Park) are designated as a Canadian Heritage River. As a tributary to the Mackenzie River, water flowing on the Athabasca River eventually drains into the Arctic Ocean."

Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!
Business has been slow, so I didn't have to work today. I took a drive to the hill country looking for something to photograph. I got a few I liked and than the sun was just too bright and everything starting looking ugly..:)
Early in the morning on May 24, during the 2015 Texas–Oklahoma floods, the Blanco River experienced catastrophic flooding. The river at Wimberley rose more than 30 feet in less than three hours, and set a new record high crest of more than 40 feet while disabling the gauge.
Rainfall totals of 10 to 13 inches were reported upstream in southern Blanco County, and all of this water entered the Blanco River and Little Blanco River. The Fischer Store Rd. bridge over the Blanco River was destroyed by flood waters west of Wimberley. The Blanco River, down stream from the bridge, at Wimberley reached a record crest. The gauge failed at 40 feet and the USGS later estimated the crest at 44.9 feet with peak flow of 175,000 cubic feet per second (5,000 m3/s). This height was more than 10 feet over the previous record height of 33.3 feet from 1929. Homes along the banks of the Blanco River from the City of Blanco, through Wimberley, and down to San Marcos experienced an historic flood. Many homes were totally destroyed and swept down stream. Many homes were struck by large debris, including full size cypress trees which typically lined the banks of the river.
