Not the half submerged sand dredge.

 

After dropping off my daughter at school I headed to Sherman Beach County Park with the intentions of shooting some IR images in the early morning light of a half submerged sand dredge (map) on the southern bank of the Meramec River.  When the river is down you can walk out to the dredge without getting wet.  Today It was to long of a jump over way to deep, fast running, really cold water,  so I choose to snap the above photo instead.
