the river runs dry by koalagardens

the river runs dry

This is my WWYD 181 entry - I've replaced the road with the devastating Australian Murray River which has run so dry fish kills have been through the roof.
This is a bit of a play on the theme that one of our most important major water sources is turning into a desert area.
My finishing touch was to turn my edited image into an oil painting, complete with storm clouds threatening but failing to bring rain.
I must say I do enjoy the WWYD because of the total artistic licence that it begs you to think totally outside the box.
Thanks so much if you got this far reading my musings, and I hope you enjoy seeing all the super edits people are entering in this fun challenge.
this is very clever

Great editing! I didn’t realize you’d done a composite until you said so. Is there any end in site to this drought? Sending good juju.

@elatedpixie the Murray issue is more than drought, so many complexities in this man-made world!
