Deep roots in time and place by

Grasping at air and last winter sun,
cold lie my water washed roots,
tears fall for my fallen family,
washed by the river’s claws to rest at my feet.

This section of the riverside, by the River Ouse, is named Dame Judi Dench Walk, in honour of one of York’s more famous daughters. It also a favourite spot to moor boats, walk along the river besides the Museum Gardens, head down towards the flood plains and a much favoured haunt of painters and photographers when it floods :)

Taken during a very enjoyable Redbubble meet with Steve ‘Pork Pie’ and Lesley and Jason ‘wide angle’ and Donna

Converted into black and white and best viewed large.
