Day One Hundred Fourteen. 5.3.11

Flood

I often notice details when I'm driving, and I rarely actually pull over to take pictures of them.  I drive by Wrightsville Reservoir every day on my way to work, and there's a break in the trees along Rt. 12 on the boat ramp.   It's a really quick glimpse, and it's a beautiful view - I always slow down and peek through. Sometimes there's a thick fog covering the whole area that makes it look mysterious and awe inspiring.  In the fall, it's the amazing color reflected in the water.  Today, it was the incredibly high water.  You can see that this tree is completely surrounded by water.  It sits in the parking lot of the boat ramp.  The water went all the way up to the bottom of the ramp which leads to the parking lot.  Seriously high water.  And worth pulling off the road to take a closer look...and a photo.
