So many interesting things happened this morning that I was having difficulty deciding which photo I would use for today. Vapor trails from commercial jets crisscrossed above the skyline. A family of ducks swam past in a V formation. Seagulls were migrating upriver in unusually large flocks, creating a spectacle of their own in the sky.
And then this happened. The sun began to emerge with a white hot brilliance. It was as if the sun was burning a hole through this building. This was not a camera effect, as it was visible to the naked eye. I don’t know what caused the sunlight to shine through. My best guess is probably windows positioned directly in line with the sun. A seagull passed by at just the right moment. And I knew immediately that I had my shot for the day.
