High tide at the Everglades

Since the storm Eta on November 9, we still have places that suffer high waters. This is taken at Everglades Holiday park, were they had to make another deck to cross the waters to their deck for the boat rides. Before you could just walk up. You can see by the tiki hut that the picnic table seat is under water and the information board regarding birds and animals in the everglades is not accessible without getting wet feet. Just hope some of those animals such as the alligators know to stay in their "old" boundaries.

Lovely POV

Wow! That's something. I hope the water level goes down soon. Very nice documentary capture!

[Rick]

Wow, we've still had some higher than normal tides up here, but nothing like this. Great shot.

[Diana]

Beautifully composed and great pov. that does seem pretty high, hope it goes down soon.

[Corinne C]

Nice pic. I hope the water recedes soon.

[Wylie]

It was looking lovely and tropical until I read the story!!

[Babs]

It does look quite tropical but I wouldn't fancy coking across alligators.

[Molly]

The water is certainly lingering - let’s hope the alligators don’t! A very informative composition.

[Van]

Great composition

[Ingrid]

No picnic there for a while.... I remember Houston and floodwater. The park where my son played soccer often flooded - didn't like the smell and the mosquitoes.

[Margo]

This is a nice shot

[John Falconer]

Nice shot and narrative.

[Joan Robillard]

Nice shot

[Susan Wakely]

Let’s hope that normality is restored when the water level go down.

[Carole Sandford]

Those clouds look a little threatening, hope they don’t add to the woe!

[KV]

We’ve been on one of those boat rides to see a gator show... that planking doesn’t look too safe. Hope the waters continue to recede.

[Kate]

Hopefully as the water recedes so do any dangerous creatures

[Pat Thacker]

A great capture of this watery scene. Hopefully there isn't more to come from those clouds.

[Merrelyn]

Hopefully the water will recede soon.

[Cathy]

The walkway creates a nice diagonal, but the high waters are concerning.

[Sue Cooper]

This is a wonderful shot. I assume you live near the Everglades and that’s where you take your amazing bird photos.

[Anja]

Daar word je niet blij van. Hopelijk zakt het water snel.

[Margaret Brown]

Nice POV and capture

[Denise (lyndemc)]

I thought about alligators the moment you mentioned flooding. Yikes. Can't imagine being surprised by one of those monster creatures.

[bkb in the city]

Great shot

[bruni]

If you live close to water, you have to anticipate flooding during or after a storm. we had 20 ft.waves crashing the shoreline. the storm tore plankings of the rooftops of high rises in. glad I live over an hours highway drive north of there. love your composition and hope the water will recede soon , leaving no cros behind.

[Gosia]

Great capture

[Bep]

Great capture!

[Lin]

Wow - nicely captured.

[Pyrrhula]

Een prachtig plaatje. Jammer van die power lijnen er dwars doorheen. Ik haal ze dan weg.

[Esther Rosenberg]

@ingrid01, yeah, those mosquitoes are annoying .
@susiemc I am surrounded by Everglades, about 30 -45 minutes drive. @bruni , I am officially not in a flood zone area.. nevertheless we got lots of water from this latest storm.
@pyrrhula , daar ga ik aan werken. Ben nog niet zo goed met dat soort dingen :-)

Great shot and narrative.
