Golden hour addiction - Golden Hour at Ribblehead with the setting winter sun bathing the viaduct in golden, warm light.

I am drawn to this wonderful location at golden hour and forever amazed how the stonework ignites and bursts into life with a radiant glow for a brief few minutes when the conditions are just right. It seems the grey of the ordinarily dull stonework is a great canvas for golden hour; you have to be there to experience it and that it's no fluke or trick.

This is a retake of my favourite image from my 365 project a couple of years ago. I've always wanted to recapture a similar image under the same conditions, so when the opportunity seemed forecast recently, I just couldn’t resist.
