I went out for a bike ride quite late yesterday (Sunday) evening.
I wasn't the only cyclist enjoying the late sunshine.
This bridge crosses the old river whose flow is controlled by the sluice gate in the near distance.
I have already shared the poppies but I stopped to get some more images
All the images shared on this post were taken with my little point and shoot.

I stopped when I reached the horse bridge... to the left is the Weaver Navigation..
The original river rejoins the navigation after its short meander at this point.
The views above were taken while standing on the horse bridge... looking right.
The sun was setting behind me as I returned to my starting point at Acton Bridge.
Ahead the skies still looked bright.
The still waters of the river offered some lovely reflections.
The swing bridge at Acton Bridge... and the Leigh Arms pub (white building over the road on the left)
I had time for a pint before heading home.

Oh, the last photo is fantastic! That's a very nice reflection! The sunset is gorgeous. Beautiful scenery and a great place to ride!
Lovely late afternoon view over the bridge. How pretty to see the vibrant poppies growing midst all the lush green by the water. Super reflections in your finale' bridge photograph!
Your little point and click does a wonderful job. I like the stillness of the waters; I can almost feel the evening. I'd like to join you for a pint also.
Lovely riverside stroll Andrew.
Poppies always brighten a landscape; and that sunset is a beauty.
Very nice pictures with good compositions , nice colos and light,

Nice pictures John, can you be over the limit on a bike ?

Such a quiet reflective mood, Drew. - I could get lost in your pictures. It reminds me to take time to slow down.
WOW! All such beautiful shots. Great skies, lovely sunset, beautiful reflections, wonderful bridges, gorgeous flowers. There is so much beauty in this world, if only we stop to admire it... you have done that wonderfully. Thanks for sharing :)
