It&#8217;s a shame that I was taking pictures at that time of day because the light was almost from behind. If I had tried in the morning the light would have been better. If I had tried at dawn or dusk then it could have made for some nice pictures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=150%2C113&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=1600%2C1200&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.main-vision.com\/richard\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/img_2694.jpg?resize=780%2C585&amp;ssl=1 780w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d like to go back with a different camera with a proper lens and stand slightly more to the side and take pictures at a slightly more interesting moment.
