Why are all those buildings abandoned?

Well I was jogging with a full hiking pack through the bush (to get to my destination before the sun went away), and came up to a ridge clear of trees where I could see this view. The sunbeam in the gap of the clouds lasted about 90 seconds, enough time for me to change lenses, then faded while I watched. If I were a couple minutes faster or slower, I would have just seen a drab grey skyline. Happy little accident.

Opportunity, not accident. An accidental photo would've been what sudo described in his somewhat hyperbolic comment.

Most of my best pictures are also accidents. That's just how it is with photography, man.

I'll keep it up, but next time, if it's OC, just label it as such. Great shot, btw.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Sorry, my bad, I've updated the title. Cheers!

[-] Theprogressivist@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

You're good. Didn't want to take down a great photo.

[-] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Stupendously sublime mate. ๐Ÿ˜

[-] KammicRelief@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

So nice! Those happy lighting accidents are the best. Well captured!

I like it better without the tree, but damn that's a gorgeous shot

Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is our kingdom.
