This was taken back behind the Canton Pavilion right after a day of rain. The edge of the walkway is usually a little bit marshy and muddy, but in this picture the area around the river is completely flooded. As you can kind of see in the photo, the paved path disappears and the trees which are usually at the edge of the river are now part of the river. I think this photo is interesting because of the way the sun is shining through - the shadow of the trees kind of measures how much has flooded.
