Some people say you shouldn’t shoot into the sun, however, I think you can get interesting results sometimes. The sun flare provided by the sun can be a cool effect. I really like it on the image below. I could have easily avoided the sun flare by adjusting my angle, but the flare really gave this image a unique look that would have been really kind of boring without it.
I threw some Topaz Simplify on the background with a mild Gaussian Blur to break up the Simplify pattern. That is all for today, I am working pretty hard putting some finishing touches on my submission for Wednesday’s HDR Concert. I usually have these things done long before the submissions and for the most part I did, but I woke up this morning with a killer addition that I just had to put in! I hit me when I found this image with the sun flare. See you all Wednesday!
For Blake, it's all about the art and process synergy. He dives deep into complex topics and makes them easy to understand through his outside-the-box thinking so that you can use these tricks in your workflow today!
