Context

Context is everything and depending on who you are this might be a scene of tranquility or a scene of distress.

Below the thin dark line to the right of the bridge is a wall with a large sign ‘Welcome To The Killeen Course’.

Further down below that dappled lake’s surface is asphalt marked with white lines where in normal times golfers cars would be parked.

Fishing boats tied up to a small wharf have either been torn away or drowned as their lines lost slack in the rising water.

The Killarney Golf Clubhouse off to the right had been cut off for days and only just become accessible again albeit via a short crossing driving through thigh deep water.

Despite the flooding, there are some golfers out enjoying a very different course.
