Shadows in the Day #bidford 12

It looks picturesque but it looks like something’s lurking underneath. The shallow bit is in front of us, but we don’t know how deep the back goes. Perhaps something with a lot of fur judging by the surrounding grass. Just to the left of the right-hand bank, something could even be giving us the finger while the shadow of hand rests on the other side. Perhaps it’s angry that we’ve ventured onto its land. It could be a giant woman relaxing with a water-printed dress, and the bar at the top is holding it into place while a pair of unseen arms hang off the telegraph pole. The large green bushes on the edges could be hair with an earring on the righthand side. Maybe something needs a trim. And you don’t want to think about the white foam that’s appeared in the centre on the top of the water. You’ll have to dive down there to find out.
