EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled within the picturesque village of Blagdon, in the heart of North Somerset, England, lies the enchanting and ethereal beauty of Burrington Coombe, home to the renowned natural wonder, The Sawn Bend, or locally known as Thes Bend. This breathtaking scene captures the essence of the English countryside, where the River Chew meanders gracefully through the lush, green valley, carving its way around the colossal limestone outcrops that dominate the landscape. The Sawn Bend, a serene and tranquil section of the river, is a testament to the power and persistence of nature, as the river's relentless flow has carved out this stunning, horseshoe-shaped bend over centuries. The sun-kissed, golden grasses that line the riverbank add a warm, inviting glow to the scene, while the towering trees and undulating hills in the background provide a sense of depth and scale. The Sawn Bend is not only a feast for the eyes but also a haven for wildlife. The crystal-clear waters of the River Chew are home to a diverse range of aquatic species, including brown trout, grayling, and eels, while the surrounding woodlands and meadows offer shelter and sustenance to a variety of birds, mammals, and insects. This photograph, captured by a skilled and discerning photographer, invites us to take a moment to appreciate the beauty and wonder of nature, to reconnect with the natural world, and to be reminded of the simple pleasures and joys that can be found in the most unexpected of places. The Sawn Bend at Burrington Coombe is a treasure to be cherished and celebrated, a testament to the enduring power and beauty of the natural world.
