First Light, a photo from Northumberland, England

Photographer's Note

Another in my series of shots at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, this time taken in the early morning, just as the sun was rising.

A 15 second exposure has recorded movement in the trees used to frame the shot, but fortunately, the pair of swans on the river Aln were very obliging, keeping almost perfectly still until the shutter closed again.

The blur affect works great here
and the swans add beauty to the photo.
Nicely done James

Fantastic colors and depth. Wonder, the swanes kept still for that long time of exposure. I like the blur of the river. Well done, James.
