Stroll to Gina's

I was taking a walk to Gina's the other day when I realised the value of the great outdoors and the natural lighting that exists without fluorescent bulbs. The lighting was simply spectacular, casting shadows on the sidewalk with a high contrast because of the overcast sky. The colours weren't so vivid, except the typical Irvine (probably spray-painted) green grass, but it seemed that the lighting created more of a white overlay to the sky which made the colours seem more vivid than they actually were.

Considering that it was about 4 pm, I expected there to be a bit more of a sunset, but then again I'm never really good at predicting when the sun is going to set. There was a fresh feel to the day, despite the fact that it was late afternoon, and I have the feeling that the fresh feel was due to the fact that the sun was muted by clouds.
