You know how it is: you're in a crowd, you know there's a photo to be taken, so you wave your camera in the air and hope. You never know what you'll get, but if it's not the picture you wanted maybe someone else will share theirs with you.
This is Moor Park nature reserve, a couple of miles from Farnham. This sort
of alder swamp is now quite a rare habitat. Last time I posted a photo of
this place Caine described it as "out of time"; she had a point, it looks
almost primeval sometimes, a sense that's heightened when a bloody great
heron flies over and you think "pterodactyl" (well I think that, but I've
got quite a lively imagination).
