EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photo print, captured by the talented Damian Grady, showcases a mesmerizing scene of Worcester County Cricket Club submerged under the mighty River Severn's flooding waters. The image beautifully juxtaposes the historic Christ and St Marys Cathedral in the foreground against the urban landscape of Worcester, Worcestershire. The photograph encapsulates both the power of nature and its impact on an urban cityscape. The flooded cricket ground serves as a stark reminder of how vulnerable even our most cherished landmarks can be when faced with Mother Nature's forceful hand. It evokes a sense of awe and respect for the sheer strength that rivers possess. Despite this display of natural might, there is also an undeniable beauty to be found within this image. The cathedral stands tall amidst adversity, symbolizing resilience and faith in times of crisis. Its architectural grandeur contrasts against the surrounding floodwaters, creating a striking visual contrast that draws viewers into contemplation. Damian Grady has masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also emotions stirred by this extraordinary event. This print from Historic England allows us to reflect upon our relationship with nature and appreciate both its destructive capabilities and inherent magnificence.
