LIGHTING FOR THE CUPOLA by sangwann

LIGHTING FOR THE CUPOLA

When, the other day I was waiting for the Amerigo Vespucci to show up and was passing the time taking shots of whatever I could see I suddenly saw extra lighting over Valletta. It was the cupola of Our Lady of Carmel church; I took a quick shot of it and, at the same time I said to myself: “It wasn’t lit when I took a previous photo of the Valletta skyline”. I looked into the rear view mirror and had a look at previous photos to confirm. This took less than one second and when I raised my head again the lights were gone. I am still confused at what happened – it was either a trial switch on or something went wrong with the lighting. Here is the shot I took.
Thanks a lot for your visits, comments and fav's - always appreciated.
What a great shot, it looks amazing in the golden glow.
