Another shot of the Waitaki River close to the Kurow Bridge.
The Waitaki is 207 KM long and originates in the Southern Alps.
It is a Braided River, so is always changing.
"Globally, braided rivers are rare. They exist only where a very specific combination of climate and geology allows rivers to form ever-changing and highly dynamic "braided" channels across a wide gravelly riverbed. New Zealand is a braided river hot-spot"

Thanks for the info and picture. The title immediately reminded me of an old Gospel song with the same name.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
The angle you used for this capture is spot on, and thank you for the information as well. You did a good job on this one my friend. tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Very nice panoramic view with those green mountains and that sky. I also like the reflection of the tree in front.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

The title "Down by the Riverside" brought back some memories for me too.

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. Albert Camus
A lovely scene, Lyn. Braided rivers abound in Alaska also.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Cool foreground with the reflections LE.
I like that old song.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
The modern bridge notwithstanding, this looks like a good place for a pleasant stroll, listening to the water running over the stones. Reading about braided rivers in the link you provided, I suspect the Niobrara in Nebraska, in the middle of the U.S., is a variation of a braided river. Thanks for the extra info.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Lyn, with this wonderful image and well documented narrative, you prove too that Caedes is a wonderful site, providing us not only with (very) fine images/artworks (shared by the contributing artists), but is enhancing our knowledge about different subjects as well.
Thanks for that!
