A Naked Place
Uploaded: October 21, 2004
On the upper end of Truman Lake, there is lots of acreage like this. Shallow backwaters, with lots of dead trees and the remains of trees, the timber wasn't cut, so the high water in the spring just gradually killed all the trees. It's increased the waterfowl, but in normal daylight it's pretty ugly looking, just lots of weeds, mud and stumps. This light makes it quite interesting.
