High Water in WV

On a great visit to my home state of Wild Wonderful West Virginia, I was catching the cresting flood waters. It happens about every year. Some years are far worse than others. This year it was certainly high, but not as destructive as it has been in the past. I thought a little black and white editing would work well here. I don't know if you will really get the perspective. I grew up on the Ohio river so I certainly understand how high the water reached. It basically flooded our whole plot of land that goes from the tracks down to the normal level. I have heard that it has gone up somewhere between 19-22 ft.
