As we were taking off from Martin State Airport, we had a nice view of Wilson Point there that sticks out towards the Chesapeake Bay. I marked on the photo where my Dad's house is located. Also marked some other features in the photo like downtown Baltimore, etc.
Just about all the homes there on the end of Wilson Point ended up with water in them when Hurricane Isabel came up the East Coast. You can see how easily that thin peninsula does not provide a lot of protection from water being blown in from across the large bay.
It’s been a great weekend for sunbathing in Devon.
For photography - not so much
(if you’re fond of clouds like me)
Luckily there was a late appearance last night down by the river :)
Thanks to Everyone who took the trouble to view, comment or fave.
I found this colorful lily a couple of weeks ago after a walk around a local park : )

Water turns a cataract on the Speed River in Riverside Park in the City of Guelph.
1999 marks the third time in my life when I picked up the photography bug. Armed with a new Canon FTb to replace one lost in a fire, I was out photographing again.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 1999, or photos from The City of Guelph, which was my inspiration at this time.

This is a photo of a submerged aquatic plant surrounded by a complex network of tree reflections on the wind stirred surface of the river.
Cruising down the brown waters of the Yara river to where it comes out as a port. In places thr colours come out and our boat added the ripple "filter". Thanks very much for visiting our Aussie holiday snaps.

We enter the trail. We go to see the Kozjak waterfall, but first we admire the river Soča and the mountains in the background :)
Soča is a 137-kilometre long river that flows through western Slovenia and northeastern Italy. An Alpine river in character, its source lies in the Trenta Valley in the Julian Alps in northwestern Slovenia, at an elevation of 876 metres. Due to its emerald-green water, the river is marketed as "The Emerald Beauty." It is said to be one of the rare rivers in the world that retain such a colour throughout their length. The river is also well known for the marble trout (Salmo marmoratus); this species is native to rivers of the northern Adriatic basin, and it lives in the upper course of the river. This species is currently endangered, due to the introduction of other non-indigenous trout species sometime between World War I and World War II.

Wchodzimy na szlak. Idziemy obejrzeć wodospad Kozjak, ale najpierw podziwiamy błękitną rzekę Soča oraz góry w tle :)
Soča to 137-kilometrowa rzeka, płynąca przez zachodnią Słowenię i północno-wschodnie Włochy. Jest to rzeka o charakterze alpejskim, której źródło znajduje się w dolinie Trenta w Alpach Julijskich, w północno-zachodniej Słowenii, na wysokości 876 m. Jest ważnym skarbem przyrody w Parku Narodowym Triglav. Słynie z głębokiego szmaragdowego koloru wody i energicznych bystrzy w górnym biegu rzeki. Jest jedną z nielicznych rzek na świecie, które zachowują taki kolor na całej swojej długości. Rzeka jest również dobrze znana z pstrąga marmurkowego (Salmo marmoratus). Gatunek ten jest rodzimy dla rzek północnego basenu Adriatyku i żyje w górnym biegu rzeki. Jest obecnie zagrożony z powodu wprowadzenia innych gatunków pstrąga obcego w okresie między I a II wojną światową.
The Skjálfandafljót River, best known for its Goðafoss Waterfall, is Iceland's fourth longest river.
“In every man’s life, there are moments when there is a lifting of the veil at the horizon of the known, opening a sight of the eternal. We do not leave the shore of the known in search of adventure or suspense, or because of the failure of reason to answer our questions. We sail because our mind is like a fantastic seashell. And when applying our ear to its lips, we hear a perpetual murmur from the waves beyond the shore.”
- Abraham Joshua Heschel
