Sunshine on a Cloudy Day!

Captured at Minehad Harbour in Somerset on a very cold day despite the sunshine, the fluffy clouds and the light on the sea. On a warmer day I could spend more time here dreaming and enjoying the view and the sight of the clouds rolling in to shore, the little boats and the beautiful light.

I have added a song by Laufey called 'Dreamer'

Hi Carol,
I like this picture very much!
The streetlamp thrusting its way up between the clouds..
Fantastic colours too
I certainly must try and get to Minehead again this year. I am so tempted by all the photos from you and Roger.
Best Wishes, HFF, and stay safe!!

Thank you very much Peter. I hope you do get to Minehad again. There is always something to see. Look out for the wacky sculptures if you do get there. I rather liked the one of the train by the station. I think that would probably be your favourite too!!!

HFF and have a lovely weekend

Thank you very much Marije. It was nice that it was quiet, probably because it was very cold, but it meant it was easier to take photos without people in them!

Minehead has a lot going for it Carol. The time I too stood at this spot we were captivated by a most wonderful rainbow out to sea. Well done.

Thank you very much Herb. I like Minehead, particularly the harbour area. It was very cold on this visit but the upside of this was that it was very quiet, which was nice.

I am pleased you enjoyed your visit here and managed to get some great photos

You have composed it beautifully Carol. Minehead is a great favourite of mine and brings back memories of childhood holidays at Butlins....it gave my parents a good rest with 5 of us fully occupied :-))
HFF and wish you a good weekend....keep warm.

The waves of the sea and the clouds in the sky move, the only fixed point seems to be the street lamp in the center of this excellent image.
I know that in winter, if the sky is cloudy, temperatures rise and if it is sunny they fall.
Warm greetings

That does look like a very nice place to visit and spend some time! The title reminds me of another song I really like, "My Girl" by The Temptations.
