2017-10-24 just a little walk

I just went down to the lake for a little walk. The sky was of a milky gray and it did not look like a sunset. But then this happened, the sun tinted the sky and the little creek showed today a little s-curve. Of course I did not carry the tripod, neither the remote, or a greyfilter. So I did my best, with the only spot (rock) I could place the camera, equillibrated it with sticks and pebbles, set the 2'' timer and used all in-camera adjustments I could find, to lower the amount of light, and get a bit of blur without overexposing. And then the redstart sat on the stone,... Made me happy, that I have him in the picture. The blury patch on the waterline is a crow, fidging around.
Well, it is not the best shot, still I like it, as I was challenged with the circumstances.
Wow! Gorgeous!
