Bubbling up


On Tuesdays I posted some photo showing the steps at Wallingford Bridge with the Thames Flooding, well just prior to going there I went to a supermarket in town where I saw this drain bubbling up. I took a photo & posted on Twitter where it was seen by Simon Parkin of ITV weather.  Tuesday evening I went back to get another photo of the river and took this photo of the drain which was 24 hours after the first.

The photo I took the previous night before was shown on the TV weather Tuesday after I went out & I missed it at least my wife saw the photo.

Fame at last. I'm surprised they didn't ask for your permission first.

No lucky they are rainwater drains, I think it empties in the river which is very high at the moment.

Thats the spirit. Yes all it need is to be pink like the oose

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Thats the street lights doing that

Even more now, I think it reached the 2003 level

Not the sort of thing you expect to see in a town

Always have a camera on you is the rule

Eeeek! I don't want to think what might be in that water. :)
It's also a really nice night shot!

Don't worry it was OK as I have not heard anything untoward about it

I'm not surprised your photo was picked up. It was impressive. I love this one, another super photo and I too love the glow in this one. A very dramatic scene with the water bubbling through like that. Hope you have a drier Sunday Bill. I like the occasional rainy day but when it causes all kind of chaos, not so much.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

The glow is caused by the streetlights. I hope it is dryer but It will be a while before we are dry out
