About the only benefit from long few days dealing with local floods was the opportunity for a lot of pics ;)

The sun was going down but as the light played over the flood waters it produced a beautiful lightEquipment

As i work for my local Council,I'd been out helping people affected by the flooding and as i drove home after work along the Embankment i saw how the light was playing over the flood waters.Editing
Not much processing to be honest. Lightened it a tad using Picasa3 (couldn't stretch to PS then!). The colours were enhanced in camera using a preset function so they came out not far off the finished photoIn my camera bag
Sadly i'm on a budget but i managed to upgrade from my 1st dslr (Canon 1100d) to a Canon 750d this year (loving it!) and so far i only have a couple of lenses and i'm struggling to fault the EFS 55-250mm lens i bought to go with it! I usually have my DMC-LX7 with me if i don't have my Canon.Feedback
To be honest i'm grateful that i don't have the opportunity to take these shots too often as they are only possible each time it floods here! My mantra is photo, photo, photo! I know it may be better to learn a different way but i just love taking photos.
