Took a stroll out to Moreton's Leam on the River Nene Washes after the recent rain and the Washes had been opened to contain the excess of water trying to get out to sea. Everything still flooded, rather there than here. Bronica Etrs, Ilford HP5,Bellini Euro HC. #believeinfilm#photography

A black and white image of trees submerged in water after recent heavy rainfall. This is Moreton's Leam on the River Nene Washes in the Cambridgeshire Fens, an area of low lying reclaimed land in the East of England. The Washes are maintained and put aside to be used after periods of heavy rainfall or high tides when the volumes of water are more than the River Nene can cope with and threaten to flood local communities. The Washes are nearly 4000 acres in size and when needed act as a containment resevoir to permit a controlled release of water further downstream. They are used for sheep grazing and hosts a remarkable amount of wetland birdlife.
