Alney Island is surrounded by the River Severn at Gloucester. It is mostly a water meadow and largely free of ‘development’. I have written about it before. I took the pictures on 15 January, greatly moved by this landscape, the water margin feel, and the energy of the river, whose ‘left channel’ flowed past me close by. I’m short on words, today. So I’m letting the pictures speak for me. In a certain light, they are a kind of visual hymn.
Three water margin images:
Above the surface: Vivid russet leaves, weeping into the water.
On the surface: Floating leaves, and indistinct reflections.
Below the surface? An inverted tree, suggesting another world.
