EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, titled "Upton upon Severn 33871_042" captures a dramatic moment in the history of Worcestershire. Taken by the talented photographer Damian Grady, this print showcases the devastating flooding of River Severn at Upton upon Severn in 2019. The image transports us to a scene where nature's power is on full display. The mighty river has burst its banks, transforming the quaint town into an aquatic landscape. From above, we witness how the floodwaters have engulfed streets and buildings, leaving only rooftops and treetops visible amidst the vast expanse of water. Despite the destruction that floods bring, there is an eerie beauty to be found within this photograph. The reflection of sunlight on the rippling surface creates a mesmerizing play of light and shadow. It serves as a reminder that even during times of adversity, nature can still inspire awe-inspiring moments. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of both human resilience and vulnerability. The townspeople who call Upton upon Severn home must have faced immense challenges during this period but also demonstrated their unwavering spirit in rebuilding their lives after such devastation. Damian Grady's expert composition allows us to appreciate not just the scale but also the impact that natural disasters can have on our communities. This photograph stands as a testament to our shared human experience with nature's forces—a poignant reminder that despite our best efforts to tame it, Mother Nature will always command
