[QUOTE="hark, post: 333458, member: 13196"] This was taken with a Nikon 14mm f/2.8 ultra wide about a week-and-a-half ago. I wanted to stop down and capture the sun coming through the branches. Ultra wides are notorious for lens flare; however, I tried to use it to my advantage. I'm not sure if I like the turquoise blob on the lower third of the left-hand side, but I like the rest of the flare. What are your thoughts on the lens flare? Although I haven't learned HDR, this would have benefited from it. The sun is overblown--would have been nice to tone it down a little. Oh well...live and learn. ;) [IMG]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5570/14707297213_802a299cee_o.jpg[/IMG] [URL="https://flic.kr/p/opCK4T"]Tree with Lens Flare[/URL] by [URL="https://www.flickr.com/people//"]*Hark*[/URL], on Flickr [/QUOTE]
