PECONIC RIVER * Scenes
I live a half mile from the Peconic River and about at the middle of it's length. The River runs east to west and splits Long Island into the north and south forks. The rivers on Long Island are not really rivers but small streams or brooks that most have been dammed in spots by early settlers, forming shallow ponds.
A new modern dam was just constructed for this part of the river. It is right before the river flows under Edwards Avenue through three long concrete tubes or culverts.
Since canoes are permitted on this part of the river access around the dam was installed.
Coming down river canoes land here. Then are carried to a shoot on the other side of the dam where they continue their journey under the four land road.
Lovely location, the first 2 pictures are so beautiful, did you canoe down this one @manorvillemike ?
Yes, years ago when I was your age. :-)
Very magical!!
Yes pretty there. :-)
The colors of the autumn are very beautiful :)

Thanks sweety :-)
Really fantastic landscape, Manorvillemike. Light is fantastic, tones are perfect. Well done.
Thanks it's a cheap camera, usually too dark.
I like the way nature over the years reclaims the banks of these man made little lakes. Makes it seem like it was always that way.
Whole ponds and swamps become land. :-)
