It was a fairly slow work day. I decided to drive up and get some shots of the flooding.
Since there was no real destruction, I didn't mind getting a little artsy with a few shots. Some of these are long exposure, some not. All are shot with a polarizer filter (probably a little over-done), and I white balanced a tad on the cool side. I like dramatic skies.

The Nolin River Lake reached its highest level on record. It was built in 1963. Water was projected to start running through the spillway a little later this evening (later than I was there).

| Iberia, you can see the water line. |

| Wax Restaurant, and (again), my truck. |

The road I am on (KY728), for the shot below will be closed later when water overflows into the spillway (The water never made it to the spillway, and KY728 never closed).

| I will return for this shot in the fall (in color). |

I saw a disgusting amount of trash around the Wax aera, and had some good shots that I refused to take because of the trash level - it is sad.
