Avon silt clouds

Last Tuesday I was completely obsessed with the silt clouds flowing out of the Entrance Lock into the Avon, and I posted one or two (!) little films – but I also took a ton of photos as well.  I’ve put the one I took on my Olympus XA2 film camera into a flickr album, and if you mouse over the first one below, you should be able to see the slideshow…

Some of my favourite images:

I especially was fascinated by the almost solid line between the silt and the water – and the way two large silt masses merged.

Looking out across the river, where the tensions in the water were catching the sun as it was falling

More silt clouds, as the second lock gate was opened

Water tensions

Clouds of silt, and clouds in the sky reflecting in the water
