Lots of Rain

Lots of rain means a lot of melting, torrents in a normally calm brook, and a happier me.

A Little Bit of Litter

A Little Bit of Litter © Lynn Wiles 2012
I usually try to avoid litter and trash in my photos, even though it is everywhere I go, but this little wrapper reminded me of a bow. And yes, another concrete barrier, holding in the water.

Litter Rocks

Litter and rocks creating an abstract view of the brook.

Sparkle and Flow

Two different days, two different places along the brook.

Natural Aliens

Roots or rock, alien type forms were found near the end of the brook yesterday.

I did get to the end, where it turned into a marshy wetland before going into the river, but it was a no photo finish. There was too much brush and no paths to get a good view.

Brook Waves

North of the the brick building, the turbulence of the tiny brook has a sea like look. Update from yesterday-the brook does not go under the grave stones, but bends around.

Brook By Brick Building

Another section of the sometimes underground brook surfacing, between a brick building and a parking lot.

This is a super crop zoom of another photo at the same location, showing what appears to be the brook going under a cemetery. I was unable to scale the 6 foot fence to get a closer look, but it could be that the brook bends here. My mission for next week is to find out whether it goes under or around the grave stones.

Antler Swim

Leaf and twig creature swimming in another part of the brook discovered yesterday.

Parasol of Leaves

Yesterday was the most beautiful day. It was warm and sunny as I set out to find more parts of a mysterious brook that appears and disappears along it’s path in a neighboring town. More on that later.
