    Flood Pics.

    The attached four photos show how quickly the floods happened on a farm at Helidon (about 40 km from Brisbane )on Monday 10.01.2011.
    There has never been water on this cultivation before.

    Lockyer Creek runs behind the cultivation.
    The times on the photos say it all.....22 minutes between the first and last shots.

    The farm is upstream from Grantham which got the full force of this creek, and another creek (Flagstone Creek) which joins into it just before Grantham!!!

    Um, they don't have their camera date set properly.

    I mean, Wom, I KNOW you folks are ahead of me here in the USA, but even you guys aren't in October 2011 yet!

    WOW, floods happen quickly, but to SEE it like this, time lapsed in a way, just . . . WOW.

    Wow, that's really bad flooding. Is the water receded now?

    Many places in other parts of the world use the day/month/year format.

    They do dates there the other way around from how we do them: day/month/year (10/1/11) rather than month/day/year (1/10/11).
