River Reuss & Nadelwehr

[John Holland]

The River Reuss (flows out of lake Luzern and eventually merges with the Rhine River) flows over the Nadelwehr (Needle Dam). The actual dam is currently lying flat on the river bottom. When raised via the chain it diverts the river into a channel in the background. The river is running at a pretty good clip, so if you fell in, by the time someone threw the life ring to you, you would be well downstream (and that water is cold).

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Wow, that water is amazing. Beautifully rendered. What a rush.

 

[Dave Farnes]

Agreed, a beautiful picture of a beautiful scene.

 

[John Holland]

Thank you gentlemen for your comments.

 

[Milan Vjestica]

You have catured the speed of movement and volume really well.

 

[Pete Askew]

Superb shot, John. As Milan says, the sense of speed and volume is amazing.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Agreed with Milan and the copy cat's exclamation. Well done.
