Golden December - HFF!

Taken at South Drain between Shapwick Heath and Ham Wall. The late afternoon sun casts a golden light on the trees and the river walk is quiet and the water is still. This man-made waterway runs from the old Glastonbury Canal through the Shapwick Heath Natural Nature Reserve and out into the Huntspill River, in itself a man made cut.

Two links here - the fist is 'Golden Lights' by Twinkle

and the second is one of my favourite songs

'Fields of Gold' performed here by Sting

Wow what fabulous sunlight and lovely reflections in the water, I also like the twisted tree shapes and the diagonal of the waterway, a must view large for full effect.
HFF and a superb weekend

Wow, that's a lovely golden moment.

The first song is a real gem from the times. This song by Sting is such a favorite and fits your image perfectly.

HFF to you, Carol, and I hope your weekend it nice. :)

Glorious autumn colours Carol, and an area I love! Unfortunately, I have a cold at the moment so won't be venturing out today :( I once witnessed the starlings murmurations there and it was magical! Unfortunately my photos were not very clear, but it was best just to watch!
A belated HFF and wish you a good weekend.
