If I need to think things through or if I am stuck for something to photograph then I head for Lapworth. The Canal Junction linking the Grand Union and the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal is a picturesque spot and has all those ingredients you need . I had hoped for a spectacular sunset and whilst not an intense one, it did not disappoint. I remembered to bring my wide angled lens and also a graduated filter. This did make the difference and ensured that I got a good balance between the sky and the reflections in the water. One of my pictures even made the BBC weather watchers and was shot on the iPhone.
