Dusk over Port Navas creek with the welcoming lights of the yacht club casting their welcoming glow across the water. I love this time of evening when interior lights are switched on, the orange squares pull your eye and create a feeling of warmth and home. This particular evening the river was a myriad of colour reflecting the sky as the pink tinged clouds veiled the fading blue sky. The air was cold and clear, the river was quiet. Masts of moored boats could just be glimpsed against the distant river bank, lines catching the setting sun.
