Submerged trees during late afternoon at Nottinghamshire's Attenborough Nature Reserve, a wetland next to the river Trent. It is a riparian wetland, an important ecosystem connecting river and land.
Submerged tree at a connecting point between the river Trent and one of the lakes of Nottinghamshire's Attenborough Nature Reserve. I love the natural, almost symmetrical reflection!
