Last light over Christchurch bay

Its been a full on day today - a day off when I might have achieved lots and have but its felt difficult and only at 4:54 did I feel I could take some me time down at the quay. The fading light was beautiful and so peaceful with the sky reflecting on a flat mirror sea melting away the stresses of the day. I hoped a single swan might swim into the shot but she was having none of it and I couldn't risk losing the last light so here it is...my bliss


"The last light, in the last window, went out. Only the unstoppable machine of the sea still tears away at the silence with the cyclical explosion of nocturnal waves, distant memories of sleepwalking storms and the shipwrecks of dream."
