Seeing things in a new light

Having joined the RED 5 club I was out at 6 am this morning for a 3K run (respecting the 10% rule - full 5K next Sunday). One of those times when it was a thrill just to be alive and outdoors. There seemed to be a lot of people with mobile phones and cameras, and it was difficult to avoid accidentally photobombing someone's shot, a little after 6 am on a Sunday morning! πŸ€”Everyone's a photographer it seems, even me, although this shot in no way does justice to the beauty of the dawning day, which cast the familiar landscape in a different and changing light.

Thanks lmc. It was a gorgeous morning!

How did the group get around the social gathering lockdown?

Apologies for my misleading description - it's a "virtual club" - just a silly turn of phrase by me. I believe Damienair is also running 5K every day, and I've begun referring to it as a club.

Lovely photo FP! When you have views like that, running is so much more enjoyable! Mobile phones are turning us all into photographers - unless you took your camera and tripod of course?πŸ˜‚

Thank you OGR. It felt an absolute privilege to be out there this morning. I did consider running with a tripod🀣, but yes, it was point and shoot with my mobile!πŸ“±
