Caught two snaps this morning when I was out. Water level is better in the Mississippi but still low. Carondelet park in St. Louis has two lakes -- this is the little one with a stone arch bridge. Fuji X-T4 w/16-55mm

I looks blue because it's reflecting the sky from it's surface. The water in the river at St. Louis is always murky brown. A few miles above where I took the photo the Mississippi meets the Missouri and that's where the silt comes from. The link below is a Google maps satellite view of the confluence -- you can see the two rivers mixing and the muddier Missouri. From late Summer till Spring the Mississippi flows pretty clean above St. Louis.

Nice!! The location in #2 looks like a great place to spend time and take photos!!

Question on #1: Do you know what the focal length of your lens was for that photo?
