This week’s iWitness weekly competition was wet. It was unfortunately a little bit early in the year to get out the paddling pool in the garden, but users still managed to capture a variety of shots to express the theme and show off how East Anglia uses water.

Undeterred, our members still managed to capture a variety of shots to express the theme and show off how water can enhance the beauty of our county.

The bird seems to disregard the weather and sit on the branch taking in the view while the skies empty around him.
