Water World
It seems, all ways in the Pacific Northwest led to water, – dripping, flowing, deep, thundering down, sweet or salty, or as wide as the eye can see. I live on the “We(s)t Side” of Washington State, the Salish Sea and Puget Sound with all its Islands are just a
Loose Change -A New Prompt

Deep Concerns
The US relies heavily on underground aquifers for water, which took millions of years to form but are depleting faster than they can be replenished, especially in the dry southwest.

What Lies Beneath
The life that exists in water can differ, dependent upon the flow, speed, acidity, temperature, clarity, depth, freshness, impurities, irritants, dissolved salts, time of year, tides, weather events, light levels, pollutants, total biomass – so many variables give rise to so many possibilities. Much of the time, we humans cannot,
Flowing in water
Thank you for your wonderful writing and photos about Water. Too much water can be a threat, and too little water can make life difficult, but can also sometimes show us beautiful scenery. I thought the theme would be flowing water, but then I noticed a small landscape reflected in
THE FLOW OF WATER
I racked my brain trying to come up with an idea for this prompt! I used my hometown of Niagara Falls, Ontario for my musings and could not get the Falls off my mind. So I started playing with water and fabric and hoped that something would happen. First I
