    f/10 1/250sec ISO 100 on a Sony A74 with 24mm lens.Even when I am feeling uninspired, there is always something that catches my eye on the Avon in Bath. This shot is the new footbridge connecting the city to the new office development on the south of the river. On a still day the reflections are always a feature and it was just a case of composing the shot and then waiting for people. I always try to involve a human element in my photos. The cyclist was an unexpected bonus.
