sun halo

...another view of a favorite memory...

This is surely THE IMPRESSION of THE SUN!

Renny wonderful mysterious picture how it hangs over the light of the water.

I like it!

me too. :0)

I've never seen one quite this intense ... !

 

I wonder if this is the last thing the couple on the beach saw before they were overcome by - 'poochy breath' ...

Thank you all for your comments. This was a photo that originally came out too dark (polarized filter to cut the sun's glare)... I lightened it and in the process discovered the very real lens flare...

Ken said it already, but, wow, is he right. I'm impressed by one ring, and here you find two! And at the seaside, no less. Completely, utterly lovely, magical shot.

Wow, Renny!!! I see you guys (with Don) are experts on sun Halo's! i'm thrilled and speechless. Fantastic effect!

fantastic, Renny! Makes the sea look so small and the clouds work in your favor, too.

You are too kind, Don, and thank you, Vi P and Andrea. As I wrote Don on the beauty he caught, it is an emotional high to live in the midst of and experience one of these! The only way one can prepare is just to have a camera available at all times! You all might be interested in this site too. http://www.sundog.clara.co.uk/halo/halosim.htm

Thank you, pnina, I am glad you liked it. It was a fortunate catch!
