    Lightbulb Desert Sunrise

    this is a photo that i snapped at 6 in the moring after doing a star trail shot. i think it is beatiful, it is a definate snap shot but i think that it still looks good. i just want to see what you guys think.

    I think it is ok but the halos around the sun does not look natural. maybe this was lens glare or photoshoped too much. Also the horizon is a bit too centered. would have like to see maybe a bit more foreground after the sun came up a little higher throwing some shadows around on the hilly terrain. Not bad though.
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    again i say this was a snap shot. I took some with my ftb and they just didnot look half as good as this one did, and this was taken with an olympus 3.2 mp camera, cheapo. but thanks for the advice i will use it in the future thanks again.

    I like your photo but agree about the halo effect. I can't say anything about being photoshopped too much, still learing about that stuff. The only thing I have a tendency to not like so much are the halos, otherwise I like the colors in this picture and the subject and composition of the picture.
