An Ing is an ancient flood plain, so it does not take much to cover the Fulford Ings in water at this time of year.

This man and his son live on a houseboat and are taking the Saturday shopping back to their home. If the water rises much further, they will have to move out of the boat for a while.

I find it interesting that people can live in a way so dependent upon the changes and rhythms of nature and yet within the ring road of a city. Fellow humans have so much potential to surprise us with their choices and decisions.
