Ray Mill Island At Boulters Lock, Maidenhead
On Jan 19th I headed down to one of my favourite local photographic locations, Ray Mill island. As you can see the water was very high in the River Thames, and rushing past with some incredible force, just to remind us how powerful Mother Nature can be. Luckily the sun was shining, which always makes me happier when out for a stroll!
The Weir had its gates fully open to allow the water through, and with the sun behind me, my silhouette was inevitably in the shot!
When the water level isn't so high and dangerous, this is a favourite playground for kayakers.
Strangely enough, just a few yards away from the weir, the water was very calm.
In one of the shallow man made water areas I was intrigued by the abstract shapes made by these branches and their reflections.
