Trapped between cables - a photo on Flickriver

            Shooting just before twilight is always a challenge as the light continuously fades and one needs to make adjustments progressively with time. 

I had to wait for some time for the Sun to touch the horizon before I could take this snap. With one leg on a boat (that was marooned near the banks) and one leg on land, I was able to trap the Sun between the cables. 

In the background is Vidyasagar Setu, or second Hoogly bridge as it is also commonly known as.
