Cor Blimey! That first/cover image is feckin' stunning!
Kudos to you for seeing the potential opportunity and making the most of it. While its great to plan an grand day out to try to get certain images, I think its little unexpected bonuses like these that make photography truly rewarding.
thankfully I'd charged the batteries for it, so I knew I was good to fly,
And its a pertinent reminder to always have your 'kit' ready, as you never know what surprises might appear, or when...
Thanks Dan, glad I'd got the day off work or I would have missed this, there's a bit of fog this morning, but it's raining and cloudy too, so no further epic shots for today. I also agree that you don't have to go far or plan a shoot to get some epic shots, it's one of those cases right time right place.
