Wordless Wednesday – Living on the Edge
This entry was posted in Country Living, My Photos and tagged Buckland MA, photography, river reflections, Wordless Wednesday. Bookmark the permalink.








Such a gorgeous place.
Thank you, Flavia. A friend of mine once lived in the far right building. Being on the water was really nice.
Looks so interesting.
Cantilevered out over the water, there aren’t many buildings built like that here. A bit like the Ponte Vecchio!
Crystal-clear visual.
Thank you, Rupali. 💕
perfect reflections.
Thank you, Dawn. The water offers such beautiful light.
What a peaceful looking place Eliza 🩵 xxx
Thank you, Xenia. Water is such a draw. 🙂
Beautifully reflected.
Thank you, Anne. The reflection definitely caught my eye. 🙂
A perfect mirror, so pretty!
Thank you, Barbara!
Such an old-fashioned mill town!
That it is. The bridge affords a unique view.
Gorgeous! Love the puffy clouds in the reflection. 😊
Thank you, Pepper. It was a brilliant day.
Looks like New England.
Yep, it surely is! 🙂
gorgeous image Eliza ❤️
Thank you, Catherine!
It’s so different how one can live at the edge to the water. We live at the coast but it’s so different living on such a water. Is it a lake?
Thanks

🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
It is a river, mostly peaceful, but there have been floods during hurricanes… luckily they are infrequent.
What a pretty sight! I love the water’s reflection–beautiful photo, Eliza!
Thank you, Tina. The brightly painted buildings made a nice reflection.
When you live there, it’s definitely not far from the water! Views must be spectacular.
Living close to water is always attractive, so long as it isn’t storming! These buildings were flooded during Irene and it took months to get them back in shape, you could hardly tell now.
What a beautiful scene. That water looks like a mirror!
Thank you, Monika. The light and colors were just right. 🙂
What a perfect reflection!
Thank you, Dale! 🙂
So are they on stilts of some kind, or concrete blocks, to prevent then from being flooded if/when the water rises?
They are cantilevered, of steel and wood construction, but they seem to survive floods. The last was 2011, which caused a lot of damage and closed many businesses. I saw mud being shoveled out first floor windows back into the river, ugh!
My goodness! I should say so. I don’t remember ever seeing anything like this in Maine.
Not a common sight, probably against most building codes these days anyway. 😉
Living on the edge for sure! Looks like a beautiful day. 🙂
That it was, one of those days where you wished you could hit the ‘pause’ button!
Now that’s close Eliza. Wouldn’t want to sleep walk 🤣❤️🙏
For sure!
Amazing!
Yes! 👍🏼 🙂
From the concrete beneath them, I suspect the river rises from time to time. Otherwise? A beautiful place to live!
Yes, it is lovely to sit out and enjoy the river. My friend loved living there, but floods occasionally do occur (she was there for Hurricane Irene, and everyone evacuated safely).
Lovely photo of a beautiful scene 😊
Thank you, Belinda!
Serene scene Eliza is it near the Bridge of Flowers town?
You know it! Taken from the Bridge. Thanks, Eunice. 🙂
Love that waterway.
Lovely light and reflections, such calm water, a peaceful image. Another reason to visit Shelburne Falls!
Yes! Thanks, Tom!
A beautiful place! How far does the water rise in the spring?
There is a dam not far to the left and they open a sluice way to let out torrents of water. Salmon used to run there before the dam was built and it is still called Salmon Falls.
Very beautiful, but must feel a bit edgy sometimes!
Yes! 😀
lovely reflections!
