I love dusk shots, but now with the golden hour (or around 10 minutes in reality) now pushed back to around 7:30pm its not really practical as people have families to feed, guests to entertain and other things to be getting on with.

And finally, the last of the season, and proving it can work without water was taken a couple of weeks ago for marketing a penthouse apartment in Sunningdale:
