Catching the sparkle - -

[Ron Evers]

Catching the sparkle of sunlight in water droplets leads to big issues of lens flair even with a hood on.


1.

2. Here I shaded the lens further with my hand but still got flair.

3. Again using my hand to provide extra shade.

No mater what, it was a fun experiment.

Regardless I like the first one, the last seems oof some. Maybe motion 1/25.

I agree #3 is not sharp but I think it is camera shake due to the extra "rays" from the droplet. These were all hand-held.

I find it interesting #1 is favored as I found that the sun dominated over the intended subject.

Thanks for your comments folks.
