Here are studies depicting how people on the Eastern Shore coped with flooding. A man holds the hand of his wife and children as they stand with their animals on a long boat in front of their home. A person is straddling the top of a floating house in the background. The other two studies are more geometric in nature as they work out the turbulence of water and destructive storms.
