Relaxing - Taking the Dog for an Early Evening Walk

I took Monty the dog out for an early evening walk earlier this week - he had a great old time. We wandered slowly about the park, watching swallows swoop and swirl in the bright descending sunlight.


The low sun gave some interesting lighting effects on the most mundane of subjects, like these grass blades.


The sun was sinking in the sky, but was still almost too bright to look towards it.


Monty enjoyed himself very much - the weather was cooling down, and he ambled about in the grass, sniffing everything he could.


I was able to catch a swallow in flight by following it with my lens. Not very clear, but I think it gave a neat effect...

Hope you had a nice day too,
