River Pothole, Kent Connecticut © Steven Willard
Just upstream of Bull’s Bridge, a covered bridge across the Housatonic River a few miles south of Kent, Connecticut, is a diversion dam operated by one of the electric companies. When the need arises they can virtually shut off water to the natural riverbed, and in the process, reveal a number of river potholes to the curious photographer. This is one of those locations that could keep a photographer coming back over and over, finding more potholes and perspectives, the limit being the alarm that sounds when they open the sluice gates and the sudden rush of water.

Thank you, Goff. I appreciate the reference to Henry Moore. The river bottom here is littered with stones as though he had just walked away , leaving them to be finished another day. Lots of images waiting to be made.
