EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial print captures the dramatic scene of flooding at Diglis Bridge near Worcester, Worcestershire in 2019. The River Severn, known for its unpredictable nature, is seen bursting its banks and engulfing the surrounding landscape with its relentless force. The image showcases the sheer power and magnitude of this natural disaster as it overtakes not only the river but also nearby canals and bridges. The water stretches out like a vast expanse, transforming what was once familiar into an unrecognizable terrain. Damian Grady's expert eye has beautifully captured this moment in time, freezing it forever within this striking photograph. The composition allows us to appreciate both the devastation caused by such flooding and the resilience of those affected by it. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of nature's ability to disrupt our lives while simultaneously acknowledging our own vulnerability against its forces. It serves as a poignant reminder that despite our advancements in technology and infrastructure, we remain at the mercy of Mother Nature. This print from Historic England offers us a glimpse into history - a visual record that will undoubtedly spark conversations about climate change and how communities adapt to these challenges. It stands as a testament to both human ingenuity in building bridges over tumultuous waters and nature's unwavering ability to reclaim her territory when given the chance.
