5 in 5 - March 2015 - THE GOLDEN HOUR

                                        Welcome to '5 in 5' where on the 5th of

each month I post 5 photos that I have

taken in 5 minutes. 

                                    

 

Near home there is a small church that sits remote on top of a hill and as we passed it yesterday I mentioned that I plan to stop one day and take photos. I didn't ask to stop on this occasion as we were tired and nearing the end of a 4 hour car journey, but then I noticed the sun low in the sky.

 

The golden hour. 

 

I mentioned that this is the best time of day for photos. So my husband, being the amiable soul that he is, offered to pull over, and as I never like to miss an opportunity, I grabbed my camera. As I snapped away I remembered that it is nearly 5^th of the month and so this seemed a good time to take my 5 in 5 photos. I set my timer and planned my route.....

 

One of the main reasons I wanted to visit the church is to see the cork tree that grows in the cemetery.  You can see it on the left behind the gate.

 

The bark is thick and spongy.

 
It is tall and an imposing sight in this small cemetery.  It's bark had a reddish hue in this light.

 

And when I turned I saw the sun had nearly gone down, and I reminded myself that some moments should not be missed.

And when I looked behind me, there was the moon.  The perfect end to a perfect day.
