Storm Drain Outfall Erupting Into Brown River in beside a water tower ladder in Monrovia

Storm Drain Outfall Erupting Into Brown River

by Sierra Peters

Cool blue twilight washes the Monrovia landscape as steady rain slicks the concrete banks of a swollen brown river. A massive storm drain outfall dominates the foreground, its circular mouth forcing turbulent water into the churning current. Beside the discharge point, the rusted metal rungs of a water tower ladder climb vertically into the gloom. The water surface reflects the dim evening sky, broken by white foam where the drain jet collides with the river. Mud coats the lower embankment, darkening the earth against the steel grating. The scene holds a civic austerity, defined by the heavy industrial geometry of the pipes and the relentless motion of the floodwater under the flat, gray light of the dry season evening.
