sunshine on the sidewalk silver

A few weeks ago, I was at the National Zoo in Washington, DC (and, surprisingly enjoyed myself). I sat at a little round table next to a gelato stand for a while....just people watching and sketching a little bit.
It was late afternoon, and the way the sun lit up the sidewalk turned a dull brown color into a shiny silver- I love it when that happens. (...with color and life in general).
I feel like this was one of those days- what had the potential to be a dull (and kind of disgusting...I really thought I hated zoos) experience turned about to be relaxing, enjoyable, and refreshing.
Enjoy the silver sunshine...
