The image of the first sunrise of summer was snapped by Sally Scruton of Bridgnorth who found herself awake at 5am last Thursday, which was the summer solstice – the longest day of the year.
She said: “I was having a disturbed nights sleep as my little granddaughter had just had open heart surgery on Monday.
“I looked out of my bedroom window, saw the sunrise and rushed outside to take a picture. It was simply stunning!”
She added that her snap of the solstice proved a good omen too as her granddaughter was discharged from hospital several days later.
