The Rains Came, HFF

They are neither fields or Eco park at the moment even the pigeons look dejected, one of the many times the area has flooded this year, our local council intends to spend a £140.000 installing paths and benches in the area, hope it's all waterproof and fixed down.

Hi Roger,

There must be so many photos of floods around at the moment, but you have made a really interesting composition of a bridge from nowhere to nowhere!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a good weekend!

It looks lovely but it’s also a sad sight. I think we’re going to have to learn to live with it. More trees and some of Andy’s beavers.
