A stroll by the River Tees, Yarm, UK.
Sylvias
Loc: North Yorkshire England
It started off with blue skies then the mist came in. Our nearest town Yarm is just over 3 miles away and we went round the river on New Year’s day. During the summer months it is difficult to see the river through the trees. When we have lots of heavy rain as we had this year, the river can break it’s banks and cause flooding. I thought you would like to see a shot of heavy flood defence doors to stop the water getting into people’s gardens/houses.
The last shot is part of the Leeds & Northern Railway Company’s viaduct, which was built 1849-61. Length half a mile, 43 arches, 7 million bricks. It runs behind the High street through the town.

An enjoyable series Sylvia.
Beautiful series. #7 is my favorite. Nice backstory too.
Wait just a minute! Am I confuse(d)? Are these to say you're no longer in the U.S. of 'Merica? And that you're back home in jolly 'ol Englund?
Oh, but about the pix.... They're typically 'you' (i.e., pretty dang good), but wait! I see hints of a (potential) Van Gogh and a couple of shots that could'a been Constables.
Your photographic tours are always interesting, informative and well done, Sylvia. Thank you for sharing them.
Interesting and well taken, Sylvia.
