It's 7.25 pm - see accompanying text! Dale, the river is an hour's journey from my house and I am not a morning person, so I am never there as early as 7.25 am!
Natalie, you've seen my camera - if I like the look of something I just snap, and it comes out or not... The first photo is an enlarged detail from the second, so the 'impressionistic' quality is mostly diminishing resolution....
