On the Waterfront ... Dublin

I have just been in Dublin for a few days and driving along the coast road near Clontarf and the Bull Bridge this scene unfolded before me. A quiet winter morning with the tide on the ebb and a wonderful golden light on the horizon, perfect. It is not often that a picture presents itself so easily.

Taken a short distance from the first picture and softened slightly during processing results in this glowing winter image.
