I love the unique and special light that comes on days that the sun rises into a small clear break in the eastern sky with heavy clouds to the west. The clear light and the dark clouds make subjects glow brightly in a very rare way. This morning the Broadkill River in Lewes was lit up just this way and fortunately the wind had dropped out to dead calm leaving a mirror surface to bounce the light and reflect objects in the water. I grabbed my camera and made a few photographs in the very few minutes of special light.
