EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Wayne Hutchinson, we witness an unexpected twist in the serene landscape of Elan Valley, Powys, Wales. The print showcases a magnificent dam overflow and pumping house on the reservoir, but it seems that someone forgot to turn off the tap! As water gushes out from every nook and cranny of the dammed river, it's as if nature itself is having a playful moment. The picturesque lake becomes a temporary playground for mischievous water sprites. Amidst all this watery chaos stands a sturdy British building, seemingly unfazed by the overflowing spectacle. Its walls proudly bear witness to countless summers and temperate European weather conditions. This image reminds us of both man's ingenuity in harnessing freshwater resources and nature's unpredictable power. It serves as a gentle reminder that even our best-laid plans can sometimes be washed away with one swift wave. So next time you find yourself near Penygarreg Reservoir or any other breathtaking body of water in Wales, keep an eye out for those cheeky water sprites who may just decide to give you an impromptu shower!
