Alan adds:
"We've had really heavy rain for nearly two weeks here in Georgia. For the first time in ages, I decided to take a day of recreational photography – and I wasn't going to let the rain get in the way!
"This is an old mill up in the mountains near where I live. Lots of areas were flooding and it was just too much for this mill to handle."
