Some of the devastation left from the storm in July that knocked out electricity for a week to 500,000 homes and work places.Still we were much more fortunate than New Orleans.
I have a friend who lives near Tavistock, we meet quite a lot, he said he would help me with some of my work, oh his name by the way is Mr. David Bailey. ( THE REAL DAVID BAILEY ) HE EVEN HAD A GOLD PLATED CAMERA WITH HIM....WOW.
You spend your life trying to reach the top of the canopy and then when you finally make it you get struck by lightning. I'm sure there's a lesson in that somewhere...
That's a spectacular stump. It'll probably be around for a good while yet and continue to be a home for a myriad of animals and maybe some small plants too. I love the way the top has landed completely upside down in the water like that.
I didn't know that Missouri had suffered like that from this storm...
It is the moment to point out the reheating of the climate...
Great image, Joseph. I like the depth in that view :-)
I too didn't know about the havoc wreaked in this area but must say that the aftermath with the strewn trees makes for a fascinating scene and combined with the shadows and your beautiful colors and effects it's an overall wonderful composition...a marvellous portrayal Joseph.:Pat.
I'm way behind in my comments but I'm posting this message to let you know that I have viewed this image and found it to be very nice. I've enjoyed viewing this photo. Thanks for posting it.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
