A splash of light

Doug (Burnham-on-Sea, United Kingdom) on 16 February 2015 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

We were walking along the bank of the river in Truro the only city in county of Cornwall on a grey January day early this year when the sun suddenly came out and gave me this shot

Please excuse me if I don't get to comment people's images some days but I've had to return to a work life rather than become a pensioner as I had planned due cost of living and the tax man wanting a lump of my pension. I am making an effort to return to AM3 after a bit of an absence, it's really nice to see photo's from all contributors and I will try to comment when I can. If I offer criticism I do so only to help and I do not wish to cause offence. My photography tends to be from my travels, as well as my passion which is wildlife and landscape. I hope you enjoy what you see.
Thanks for your comments I'm really grateful for them and welcome constructive feedback.

Other people would walk past that and never see the magic the Sun has created, well spotted Doug...I am surprised you haven't cloned your favourite birds into oblivion though . ;>)

@Jeff & Pat: Thanks Jeff you know me well, but I didn't think flamingo's would look right in that scene ;-)

"Let there be light..." ... I know, not very original, but thankfully you documented it!
Our world is sorely in need of more light ... and truth!
