The Murray Flooding

Having bought a new Pentax Digital SLR last week, what better to do than use it.

The Murray River is flooding for the first time since 1992. Usually we receive between 3,000 – 6,000 megalitres flow per day. Currently flows are around 65,000 megalitres with a peak flow of 90,000 megalitres predictaed for the middle of January 2011.

These are the photos that we took at the following locations:

  • Berri Marina
  • Martin’s Bend
  • Lyrup Hill
  • Lock 5
  • Headings Cliff
  • Tortise Crossing
  • Bookpurnong Road
  • Lock 4
