Catching the Light

Catching the Light
A bench shelter on the seafront at Burnham on Sea, Somerset, UK. The setting sun catches the shelter and buildings making them glow. and the blossom across the floor adds to the romantic feel.

I have added a dreamy song called 'Catch the Light' by Haroula Rose

I would appreciate it if you could view this on full screen

Many thanks

Thank you very much Armando. Yes especially from this angle, - the sea defence wall is quite high and this shelter is tucked away on the corner at the end of the promenade.

What a wonderful shot Carol. The deep red glow on the shelter and the softer, lighter glow on the buildings in the background compliment each other very nicely.

A very belated HFF Carol, enjoy the week ahead, Doug
7 months ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Doug Shepherd club
Thank you very much Doug. The light from the setting sun caught the shelter giving it a burnished look that I found quite attractive. Just as well really as I couldn't ssee over the wall properly to take photos of the sea!!!

Ecobird club has replied to Roger Bennion club
Thank you very much Roger. The best time of the day to be here from my point of view. The light catches the facades and the shelter and gives them a lovely warmth and does a good job of hiding the little flaws. I am pleased you liked the music. Haroula Rose is a lovely singer and lady. When I ordered a cd from her she also sent some extra music that provided the 'background'

We were both over the moon.

Thank you very much Misou. At this point if you are short, as I am, it is the only way to get a view of the sea!! But at least the setting sun warmed the building facades and the shelter adding an interesting glow.

Thank you Pete. A good sunset warms and enhances - and hides the blemishes. That is why I prefer to be out at night!!! Lol! To be fair it may not be exotic but it is a nice place for an evening stroll. Also I struggle to see over the wall so it was nice to have the light on the walls and shelter to give me something interesting to take.

You too have a good weekend
