a lot of very thought out photos

Tried some flood lights on chrome

I got a new one yesterday :D

I will never tire of your photography Alison!

Aww thank you Jeta.

Subtle and totally accidental -

I tried, really hard, but as you can see the 45-200 on the GH-1 doesn't want to flare for me, even direct into the sunset.
Just one measly blob, that's it.
Maybe it really doesn't need a lens hood after all ...

These new lenses are superbly coated to minimize flare unlike those of old.

Nice shots. I'm having trouble finding flare. I remembered when I used my uv filters I got alot more flare, if only I can find the darn thing :)

... and I forgot I had an old OM 50mm prime in the bag, on a micro 4/3 adapter.
I'll try with that.

Tried it again yesterday.

Got it this time using the 24-105mm. Still, this shot has about as much flare as I could get (it depends on the zoom setting and how far off center the arc is).

I did get flare-less images that I'll keep :)

I find Apertures of about f22 or f16 help with sunbursts.


A beautiful accident from me. Taken with my point and shoot.
EXIF shows F/8 & SS1/20

A few more from me. The sun was setting through the trees at the forest preserve the other day.
