Sunshine on a cloudy day

I think I've used that title before. Anyway - I've upset the cat. I shut her in a bedroom while I went up to the loft to get a weather shot. We had the edge of the appalling weather that's hit the country today which means that ours was only terrible. A bright end to the day with Andy Murray going through to the final on Sunday. I took this in manual and I can't work out how to set it properly on my new camera - time for the handbook... I'm still madly doing secret photo processing which is on a tight schedule so sorry for slack commenting ATM.
