Clyde Fisher.
Arrived in plenty of time for sunrise and took a few shots but noticed these yellow blurry streaks when I zoomed in.
Realised a ship was coming down the canal from Stanlow and was then doing mental calculations how fast tugs pull the ships because it was dot on sunrise and I didn't want to miss it.
Fortunately they move pretty swiftly despite their size and whilst it was exactly where the sun was due to rise when it was sunrise time it didn't take long to pass and it took another 10 minutes or so for the sun to clear the far bank that separates The Mersey from the MSC.
The cloud doesn't look great here but it soon blew over for one of the nicest if not most colourful sunrises I've seen here. It takes around 5-10mins for the wake from the tugs and ship to calm back down and for the water to return to where the reflections work.
Lovely morning, bit twitchy at the thought of the only time I don't want to see a ship here but it was a really nice hour spent afterwards.
