This shows the evolution through 12 consecutive months of a newly landscaped lake in Cambridgeshire.
First photo was taken in October 2015, all focused on the same spot using f/5.6 and at 16mm

Thanks for looking and hope you found it at least mildly interesting, I certainly had fun documenting it

Great set of images.
Amazing to see how it evolved.

Thank you, nature soon takes hold, saw a Bittern in the reeds there last year.
Thought I was going to miss out in March 2016, whole place was flooded, but worked out a route just in time
 
Very nice, good to see a 'puddle' evolve into a nice lake. :)

Was the work done by a local fishing club or the EA?
 
Excellent sequence, Rich. Really interesting to see how the succession has developed.

That's lovely. Especially the misty one and the swans one. Waiting for the supermarket trolley one!

Thank you, pleased to say never seen anything like that although did get one case of fly tipping.
 
First visit for about 18 months, so here is the same lake on 13.01.22
