The Water's Edge.....
...was rather closer than it should be in York last month. The Blue Bridge is usually busy with foot and cycle traffic, the blue sign marks the route of one of the cycle paths through the city. The bridge is the same one featured on the blog header so you can see how high the river had risen. Many of the flooded homes and business are still drying out with some of the worst affected having to hack the plaster off downstairs walls back to bare brickwork to allow them to dry out.
Taking part in City Daily Photo theme day

ReplyDeleteThe vertical edge of the water! Hope it recedes soon. Well, the reflection is lovely, if that is any consolation for having to live with the waterlogging!

Love your header photo, that is a beautiful blue bridge. The high risen water did provide very beautiful reflection, but still hope it didn't cause much damages.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
It's not good when the Water's Edge comes into your home. Great Theme post Deb.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so tranquil for something that caused so much destruction. I hope it'll be back to normal soon!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, if frightening, photo for Theme Day, Deb.
