All the clouds were in the southwest portion of the sky which wasn't photographing well, so I had to spin the camera around and take some photos of the sun itself. This photo was taken from my bedroom. It was at this moment that I realized I may have missed my opportunity for some good shots.
Basically, I was too late. It was not looking good for opportunities. I decided to cut my losses and try to line up some shots on a rock to see how they would turn out. It was okay. The lens flare effect is rather cool. I wish it was a bit more pronounced. Normally I abhor lens flare. But that's when it's overused in movies or in video games. It obscures the shot and in videogames that could mean missing an enemy or a corner and dying or crashing. I think lens flare belongs in photography and photography alone.
All photos are my own, taken by myself. They are taken using a Nikon P900 and a Samsung S20. Consider checking out my website, Midnight Sunsets. I'm also on Twitter and Instagram!
