The river

Take a subject you’re familiar with and imagine it as three photos in a sequence. Tackle the subject by describing those three shots.

The old abandoned building that is falling down in ruins by the river is now covered by the waters. And the forecast says that it will continue raining at least till next Wednesday.

The rains coincide with the thaw so we are in high alert. Many inhabited buildings are in danger to get flooded.

Three Perfect Shots.
