The word delta has always conjured up images in my mind of powerful rivers flowing into the sea. The Nile, the Niger and the Mississippi, exciting places that make me think of the great explorers of days gone by.
Erica at the Daily Post throws wide the definition of delta, she says,
This week, share a photograph that signifies transitions and change to you. It can be the very beginning of a phase, or the very end. As you pick up your lens, explore the ways in which a single photograph can express time, while only showing us a small portion of any given moment.
so I’ve taken advantage a little with my photo.
The Kinabatangan in Borneo rolls into the sea near Sandakan, Sabah. I was there in 2009, taking this photo five minutes before landing.
I love how the river swirls, curves, and seems to turn back on itself, an unstoppable force heading for the Sula sea.

That’s brilliant and seems to fit the theme well, despite not being a delta. I found this a tricky challenge.
That’s a wonderful shot Gilly. Makes the River Severn look positively straight 🙂
Great shot, Gilly. I love airplane images!
I love the river curve and the float cloud captures. Beautiful!
Fabulous! I could feel your excitement, Gilly! 🙂 🙂 Weekend hugs, darlin!
Meandering landscape 🙂 Great shot, Gilly!
That’s shot from the plane is amazing! It reminds us of nature’s beauty and persistence in all things. 🙂
I love taking photos from a plane, I’m like a big kid 🙂
The best photo from a plane I’ve ever seen. Your description says exactly what I’d’ve tried to say.
