The Light of a Winter Sunset

A few days ago I had the idea to go out and shoot the Christmas decorations in downtown Hamburg as long as they are still up.  The weather was cold and windy, but so what…  I waited until the late afternoon, dressed up warmly and went out.  But before I got to the shopping area my attention was caught by the great light of the nearing sunset, so I took a small detour…

For this next image I waited for 5-6 minutes for someone to walk through, but no one did, and I moved on because I didn’t want to miss the good light.

Overall none of the images have much merrit, but at least I was out with the camera again, and that felt good.
