A quiet corner in Belfast Central Library. I've passed this spot, located on a small landing on the stairs between the first and second floors, hundreds of times over the years but had never seen this perfect lighting effect before and it stopped me in my tracks. There are only a few days in mid-October when the sun is in the optimum position and low enough in the sky to shine down the narrow street opposite and through the small window at the perfect angle and I was just lucky enough to be passing at the right time. And of course if it's cloudy it's lost.
