A crack of sunlight

The spire of St. Anne's Church rises above nearby homes. The Firkin Crane is seen nearby, and the County Hall is far off in the distance. A crack in the cloud cover at the horizon allows in a smattering of light from the setting sun.

There was almost complete cloud cover the other night over Cork as we attempted to photograph the setting sun behind St. Anne’s Church, or Shandon Bells, as it’s known locally.

A few minutes before the official sunset, the horizon caught on fire and briefly lit up. It didn’t last long, and the transition between daylight and night just meant the sky got darker and the air colder around us.
