Winter Light

Mention has been made of the sun hanging very low in the sky at this time of year.  This was made abundantly clear yesterday as we picked our way through Pewit Carr.  The remains of the Nutbrook Canal have been sadly lacking in water of late, but the canal was flowing well again yesterday and as we crossed the footbridge which marks the point of long forgotten lock gate, the sun crept through the trees to dazzle us.
We were doubly dazzled by the sun reflecting off the water too.  The cold, Winter light makes the bare trees look rather skeletal.
