Summary
Description Floods Recede around the Wabash-Ohio Confluence.jpg |
Afrikaans:
Beeld in natuurlike kleur van die Wabash-Ohio-samevloeiing. Albei riviere, sowel as die Hoveymeer, vertoon silwergrys in hierdie beeld, waarskynlik weens die weerkaatsing van sonlig op die wateroppervlak. Op hoër grond lewer landboubedrywighede 'n lappieskombers van saailande, en in die waaie van die rivierkrommings is onbewerkte vloedvlaktes wat oorlopende riviere uitgelewer is.
English:
Natural-colour image of the Wabash-Ohio confluence. Both rivers, as well as Hovey Lake, appear silver-
grey
in this image, probably due to the reflection of
sunlight
off the
water
surface (
sunglint
). Away from the water, the land is a patchwork of croplands shaped by
human
design
, and floodplains shaped by overflowing rivers.
