urban sunset

This morning we woke to frost, by mid-morning it was raining and at around half past three, the sun appeared. So I decided to take Jinks and walk up the hill to get a pic of the daffodils planted by the roadside. It was not a success (litter left strewn amongst the daffodils; having to simultaneously keep tight hold of Jinks on a short lead and hold a camera, Jinks getting caught on a bramble; Jinks deciding daffodils were good for peeing up against; daffodils all looking towards the ground) BUT there was the most beautiful sunset and great views of it up the hill. But when we came home I found that the puddle at the end of our grove gave the best shot of all. So thank you to the council for making such a terrible job of resurfacing the road and leaving a dip handy for a nice big puddle.
Fab puddle shot! Just laughing at your 'high Jinks'. Lucky to have any daffs out to do battle with!

That's pretty stunning Hazel, well spotted. The refections are superb and the sunset sky just lovely.

@purplehaze12 Well we didn't know what 'hi' Jinks there would be when we named him! His kennel club name was 'Crowneast Jingle Jinks' - so that's where we originally got the idea!

@pyrrhula The trouble is, I always think these photo opportunities will also be good dogwalks but it would be much easier if I did the two separately! (But I'd be worn out!)
