The ordinary'ness of the flotsam left in the floods wake is, to me, the surprise. Papcastle is in the background.

Same view as left picture but lens focal length widened up, I couldn't decide which view suited it better.

Loading Xmas Tree Stitch
Dead Christmas tree, I didn't prop the sign up against it, it was tied to it.... very sad, also, you can see the tracts of stones left strewn all around the fields.
A close up of the tree is below

Shot of the dead Christmas tree and sign, this picture mind you doesn't show the scale of things though.

Loading Lone Chair
Loading 2 Bins
There were many chairs, stools, benchs, decking, tables strewn around, I thought this chair was more photogenic than others though.

OK, I couldn't work out how to take this picture without getting a shadow in it, a bit incongruous, there were several wheelie bins lying around, the farmer had uprighted these and was filling them with the general flotsam lying around.

Looks like "The Whole Body Centre" has moved...
