From the archives: When I had turned around the sky was just something else. Arts of a glorious sunset over the cooling towers of Radcliffe-On-Soar Powerstation.

It was October of 2023 and I had been out, but there was one location that I wanted to visit, for I had seen the sky beginning to do something else, something completely and utterly beautiful and that of course was a certain glow in the sky beginning to form - something of a truly stunning Autumnal Sunset was going to take place - but just where to watch it from? Well that would end up being the aptly named "Trent Lock" a location that is situated just outside of the Derbyshire town of Long Eaton, a place in which The Erewash Canal meets up with The River Trent, and the River Soar also meets up with The River Trent. And of course it is also where Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire all meet up, but what other famous landmark can be seen from Trent Lock, just across The RIver Trent? Ah, that is the famous cooling towers of Radcliffe-On-Soar Powerstation, now defunct sadly. But when I had visited in October of 2023, as I had said above, the sky was just beginning to do something beautiful, for nature had started to pain the sky, and I just had to walk along the side of The River Trent to a viewpoint in which I had only moments to spare, I turned around and over a period of a couple of moments, what happened? 

The sky metaphorically just exploded into a painting of colour, ahead a Rainbow and me, well I just had to capture the couple of moments in which the sky just lit up and nature had created its artwork for me to see, and below are the photos that I ended up walking away with.

"Stillness in the water, a sky on fire."

"The Rainbow, A Glow, A Sky like Nothing Else."

"The glow, the towers, the water."

"Reflections on the water, Radcliffe, a strange sense of calm."
