A river running under a canal running under a bridge... running under an airplane flying over it. Canada
This is where the Colorado River and the Green River meet. It is at the midpoint of an 11 mile hike.
Photo found in a Portland antique store of the lighthouse at the confluence of the Willamette and the Columbia.
A piece stemming from 'The Source' I created earlier. This piece reminds me of a verse from the Bible and the book of Psalms 'He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.'
This runs along the same vein of idea but now expanded upon. The size is 10 x 20 inches. I used Arches watercolor cotton paper.
Taken from the Confluence viewing tower in Hartford Illinois.Center right, is the Confluence Point, where the Missouri and Mississippi rivers merge.In this image, the rivers are flowing right to left.Center left is the (whitish) concrete observation deck of Columbia Bottom conservation area.The point (in Jones Confluence Point State Park), and Columbia Bottom conservation area(across from the point) were closed temporarily due to flooding in June, 2013.The Confluence viewing tower (in Hartford,Ill.), is just down the road from the Lewis and Clark River du Boise/Wood River camp site and visitor center.
The silt-laden waters of the Cimarron River flow into the green and relatively clean flow of the Gunnison River. The confluence occurs less than a half mile below Morrow Point Dam in Curecanti National Recreation Area east of Montrose, Colorado. The clearer water in the Gunnison results in part from the silt having settled out in either The reservoir dammed at Morrow Point or upstream into Blue Mesa Lake.
A small square surrounded comprises the center of Confluence, PA. It definitely feels more like small town America than part of the Pittsburgh area out here.
Another sculpture by O.V. "Vern" Shaffer in downtown Beloit, outside the Beloit Public Library. The plaque reads thus:
The sculpture represents the confluence of Rock River and Turtle Creek, where Beloit was founded in 1836.
This is one of my favorite places in the world in autumn. This is a small area on the Grand River, with a creek that joins in. On land, there are dozens of old, wizened, moss covered tree stumps, and all the leaves turn yellow in the fall. The coloring and ambiance reminds me of Where the Wild Things are, or middle earth. I may have to bring some people, in 19th century duds, to photograph here. It's perfect.
On our first day on the river (just off the plane for me, pretty much), we stop at the first significant confluence. This rock face is the first evidence we see of the lack of historic glaciation that makes Ivvavik and the Firth so geologically unique
