There was a steady stream of local people driving down to the park to see the flooding. It does draw people to it, even though many homes are flooding, It is a reminder of how powerful nature is.
Suppose to be higher than the flood of 2008. I photography it every year this is the worst I have seen since I moved here in 2013.

Thank John. The flood is a fine line, horrible for those when it inundates their homes, but fascinating for others to witness.

We were watching the flood conditions in Saint John on the news this evening. It sounds like the situation isn’t very good right now. I hope you are one of the lucky ones and your home is staying dry.
That first photo looks so ethereal. Love it!

I agree Robert. I think colour in the photo would have reduced the effect. I am really happy with the way they turned out. Thank you 🙂
