Mesmerising catkins pollen shower captured on London's Hackney Marshes
  • 6 years ago
Beautiful footage of a "snow shower" in east London, filmed earlier this month.

The slow-motion footage is actually fluff blowing in the breeze from trees laden with catkins at the side of a path going along the Hackney and Walthamstow Marshes.

At this time of year, so-called pollen bombs are caused by simultaneous releases from millions of birch, plane and oak trees.

The video was filmed on May 1.
