Winter at the so-called "Irreler waterfalls", which are really only a few rapids.

White water at the Isar near Unterföhring. These are "artificial" rapids - a 1920s weir at this place was demolished for environmental reasons, now the 4 m height difference are in form of these rapids.

The treacherous hornby Rapids. This seemingly impossible sandstone wall was said to be inspiration for some of M C Escher's famous drawings (although the source of this rumour is unreliable).

„Der Po verändert seinen Klang je nach Lage. Das ist ein ruhiges Murmeln in den stillen Passagen, besonders in den versteckten Mäandern. Das wird zum Donnern, wo er sich zu einem Kanal verengt. Wenn du dich nachts am Ufer zum Schlafen ausstreckst, klingt das vom Wasser her wuchtig wie ein Kontrabass und das begleitet dich die ganze Nacht. Und schließlich verwandeln seine Laute sich zu einem Konzert, wenn er sich dem Ende zu in viele Arme verzweigt, er wird zur Symphonie, spürt die Nähe des Meeres und dem Einfluss von Ebbe und Flut.“
(Paolo Rumiz)
"The Po changes its sound depending on its position. It's a quiet murmur in the quiet passages, especially in the hidden meanders. It becomes a thunder where it narrows into a channel. When you stretch out to sleep on the bank at night, it sounds massive from the water like a double bass and that accompanies you all night. And finally, its sounds turn into a concert when it branches out into many arms towards the end, it becomes a symphony, feeling the closeness of the sea and the influence of the tide."
(Paolo Rumiz)
Right after the rain stops, BNSF 1832 West pulls up to a stop signal at West Chub Lake (Carlton, MN). This 60-car Rapids Turn would hold here for a meet with a UKEEALL "dock train" and then proceed west to work Cloquet and Grand Rapids. By the time they met the taconite load and got the light here, more clouds filled in and the light wasn't nearly as good.
The other day we drove down to Elk Rapids to a Walk in the Park. Nice to be out side too. Packed a lunch and although it was cool we sat in the car had lunch and enjoyed this view.
A very cold and cloudy day at Brúarfoss in autumnal colors.
A small waterfall known for its striking color, sometimes being called "Iceland’s Bluest Waterfall." It's within the Golden Circle area in South Iceland, the waterfall drops into a crevice running through dark volcanic rock, creating sky-blue rapids contrasting with the surrounding yellow leaves.
GPS might not the exact point of this photo.
Have a nice day everyone! ❤️
It was nice to see some bats flitting around me as I walked down to the stream before sunrise this morning. I struggled to find strong images, but did quite like this one, taken as some of the trees started to be hit by the early sun.

Thanks for viewing and have a great day!
Spotted this the other day when we were heading for Traverse City. I thought they have done such a nice job decorating as you come into town.
The Fall River near Chester, Idaho moves through a constriction caused by a hard flow of basalt. A rapids run through the narrow spot. This photo was taken near the bridge where US 20 crosses the river.
Between Wain Wath Falls and the West Stonesdale Bridge, the River Swale drops over a series of chutes, rapids & small waterfalls.
CN L523 pulls out onto the flats bridge in Kaukauna on the Fox River with the last painted EJ&E GP38-2 on the roster leading a GT geep. From all the rain and melting snow, it seems the Fox River has become the Fox River Rapids as well.
