Skanky

Wow, is the Potomac skanky these days.  The dearth of rain has brought the levels down and between the stagnant water and the heat, the algae and underwater growth is flourishing.  Here's a little meditation on the underwater growth. Many of these river shots are the product of my morning meditations by the river.  Over time I start to notice things externally (as I do internally) that I had not noticed before.

This image is from a pond.  Last year about three old trees came down, exposing the pond to sunlight.  The result is a permanent cover of algae and growth.
