Winter Sunset

Moments before bad words were uttered and the right eyeball was gripped in pain

Good reason for Live View then ?

I've never seen such a shot. I would be worried that direct rays from the sun would damage the sensor similar to how it can damages our eyes?

Lol - I didn't even think about that! And here I was sticking my eye in and out of the viewfinder to get the shot.

Good question. I'm sure the sensors have an upper threshold limit of light/temperature beyond which permanent damage would ensue.

I would definitely not try this with a mid-afternoon sun.:nono:
