Blue vs. Brown–More Contrasting Photos, 2013/2015 St Lucie River/Indian River Lagoon
Monday’s blog contrasting the beautiful, blue-waters of the St Lucie River/Indian River Lagoon this summer in 2015, to the silty, dark-brown waters of the “Lost Summer” of 2013 was well received, so today will post some more photos of this “contrast.”
My husband, Ed, encouraged me to do more framed contrast photos; however, time does not permit so there is just one “framed” photo above and the rest will be separate photos. I will try to do more framed ones in the future.
Also, although Ed and I have taken thousands of photographs, they do not always “match up” in location so the visual perspectives are not “exact.” My goal while in the plane is simply to hold on to the camera, hoping it does not fall into the river. It is always very windy in the open Cub. Getting a good photo is just secondary! I mostly just use my iPhone.
Well, a picture speaks a thousand words….” so I’m not going to “say” anything else…All photos are contrasting June 20th 2015 with either August 11th or September 8th of 2013.
Thank God we having a beautiful summer!
The remainder below do not match at all, but provide contrast:

So unbelievable, yet true. What would we do without having these important pictures to document the destruction? Thank you Ed and Jacqui. I believe someday they will be used as evidence.
There is a brackish water cove directly across from goat creek. A few days ago I saw someone was doing construction on the south side of this cove. There was piles of sand and a black fabric barrier to keep the sand from going in the water. Mangrove trees lined the shore. The day before it had rained hard and little half inch long minnows churned the surface the length of where the sand was. They were only in front of where the sand was. SO CLOSE AND YET SO FAR. Listining to you guys makes me raelize how full of venom people are. I think I might just fix the area in front of the lagoon house and tell them what I done. Yesterday right at dark I had just put my sand where it would stop the algie from stinking. As I sat on my bucket enjoying the view a little white heron landed next to me . Its leg was dangling as it flew in. It could put some pressure on it but it had a bad limp. Hopefully the minnows the sand will attract will give it a easy meal while its leg heals.

Love you Ezra.
