I photographed it in bright, direct sunlight. The light was coming in at about a 40 degree up from the horizon angle. Up here in southern England the sun is rarely overhead and the sunlight is often red- tinged. The light plows through a lot of air before it reaches the ground and Shaun and I live in the London Basin which has high levels of air pollution. Both factors 'warm' colour tones.<br /><br />JohnJohn Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-50311576863304398702009-09-01T10:55:16.080+01:002009-09-01T10:55:16.080+01:00Hi John
