I love making good sun flare photos! This is one of my favorites for a few reasons:
1. It takes a bit a skill to get it right. Auto Focus doesn't work with the sun shinning in my lens, so I manually focused.
2. I got to use my 50mm (he's been neglected since my new lens came along).
3. To get the flare right I placed her in the center of the photo. I know, not so visually interesting, but the the flares give the photo some interest.
4. My senior is just super pretty and was a lot of fun!
Yes, she's a very pretty girl!
ReplyDeleteI like it centered. Beautiful.
ReplyDeletenice light! I have a similar guitar-esque photo for my entry :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous senior photo!
ReplyDeleteHooray for sun flare! Another trick (so you don't have to deal with manual focus if you don't want to): Frame your image, then use one hand as a lens hood, blocking out the harsh light. Focus on your subject, then remove your hand so the light floods in. Take picture. Voila!
