My place in time #22
This is about as close as you get around these parts to a river. One of the many drains that run through the landscape of this area, apparently 1450 km of drains, with about 500 bridges, draining water to Lake Frome.

To see a real river you'd have to drive and hour to Nelson(the Glenelg River), over the border in Victoria, or a few hours to Murray Bridge(the Murray River) towards Adelaide.

It might not be a river but it looks pretty nice. Love the algae lines flowing with the water.
ReplyDeleteI love the way the algae has come up in the photo. I'm glad I stopped to have a closer look.
DeleteYes, beautiful landscapes with this drain, I love these photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leovi :)
DeleteThere is a lot of water around at the moment after winter and everything is green. It's all a bit dried up in Summer in the Wetlands, although there is still water flowing in the drain.
Pretty, you have taken some great shots!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm really enjoying doing this photo project, it's making me stop and really look and appreciate what is around where I live :)
DeleteThat's exactly what I hoped it would do! =)
