I love to see objects silhouetted against the evening sky, whether they be natural objects or man made. The sky has such a rich range of colour and tone that even a total non artist like me can appeciate it.
Last Christmas, we went down to our London family and the boys' aunt and uncle took them to a Go Kart track for their present. They had a great time racing, finishing just as it was beginning to go dark. As we walked back to the car, I took these photos.
Even in the East End of London, surrounded by busy roads, railway arches and multi-storey housing, it is possible to find such beauty!
Wonderful silhouette shots and you've captured the special blue light that other bloggers have been talking about recently.
