Sun Flare Assignment - Emery

Caught this Seagull checking out the sunrise right before I went golfing at Pheasant Ridge

I think God was blessing my clubs this morning...

Beautiful Sun flare over Lake Michigan during recent trip to Holland, MI.

California/Arizona Time Lapse

I thought that everyone would get a kick out of this, it is all shot with individual still photos then put together to create the footage that you see here!

Angles - Here are my photos for the angles assessment, late and perhaps no longer relevant but I had the photos so I posted them!

Angle #1 - I like this one the best

Angle #2  - From the top of the street

Angle # 3  - I also like this one...

Sun Flare 2

Here is another Sun Flare...

This photo was taken in April in North Carolina, I am not sure how I got a sun flare or even if this is what you mean by sun flair...

August Photo Challenge - Events and Sun Flare

Gilford Clickers, this month's photo challenge is to capture a sun flare in an event photo. The event could be the Pittsfield Hot Air Balloon rally, a wedding, a backyard BBQ. The event is up to you, but at least one photo should attempt to capture a sun flare.

For more information on how to capture a sun flare visit I Heart Faces website.

Turkey Jim's Bridge - Campton, NH

1st Photo taken with Flash at 7:16 pm.

Exposure: 1/60s; f-stop: 3.2; focal length: 10mm; max Aperature: 3.34.



2nd Photo taken without Flash at 7:16 pm.

Exposure 1/8s; f-stop: 3.2; focal length: 10mm; max Aperature: 3.34.
Without the flash, the actual bridge comes out of hiding, as do the 2 people on the right of the bridge.

3rd Photo taken with Flash at 7:20 pm.

Exposure: 1/60s; f-stop: 3.2; focal length: 8mm; max Aperature: 3.34.
Slightly different vantage point using a wide angle lens. I wanted to get more of the water in view to set up my next picture.

4th Photo taken without Flash at 7:21 pm.

Exposure: 2 sec; f-stop: 8; focal length: 8mm; max Aperature: 3.34.
I was trying to get blur on the rushing water. I was messing around with that all week, and realize that I really do need to get a new camera as my F-stop only goes up to 8. but it was still cool.
