Burning light

Burning light - Sunset at Winskill Stones with intense burning light of the sun's last rays, streaming onto the lone hawthorn tree and just catching the limestone pavement.

The cloud bank which had just moved in enveloped most of the sky except for a small portion on the western horizon with the setting sun streaming through this narrow gap. The cloud cover removed the blue scattered light normally seen with a cloudless sky at sunset, leaving the sun's almost red rays to dominate the scene with an unusual intensity.

Inspired by Pete Rowbottom, Wigan, UK who's sunset the previous day at Winskill flic.kr/p/PrjPWa convinced me it was a good idea to visit the stones at last light the following day. Thanks Pete!
