    April Project........lens flare

    Using flare intentionally

    Thank you for the idea, LightBright.

    Should be a challenge for most of us. I've never done it on purpose.

    A couple more.

    Would have liked a bit more flare in these two. Oh well, I'll just have to go back and try again

    Re: April Project........lens flare

    I think I have lots of examples in my library somewhere but nothing yet from this month.

    I did try to create one last night with my MIG welder. Darn anti-reflecting lens coatings - where's the flare when you need one

    Loupey I wonder what this shot would have looked like if you tried it with the shielding gas off.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...
