Description
Taken a year ago. I didn't know where these pics were and I finally found them! Yay. Anyways, it was a good day. Cropped out some of the ground & boosted contrast just a bit.Submitted to =Wonderful-World & *Scapes-club

I just realised the sun looks like the initial flash of a nuclear detonation. Gives the photo a whole new meaning, and makes it a little sad for me.

Well I don't want it to be sad for you.

I noticed the 'flash' too. It reminds me of a scene in the move "The Day After", from the '80s I think. But that does not take away from the beauty at all!

Everyone has voted on a straight horizon. Yay! I'm happy.
I really hadn't noticed the sun looking like that until Tim brought it up. Now I notice it. I like it. Its not something I usually like, but I did this time.
Thank you.

I'm glad that noticing the flash didn't cause you not to like the photo!

It's my fault! I shouldn't have noticed that nuclear flash!

Really nice shot, Jen. The sun almost looks like a nuclear bomb exploding. And the horizon looks fine too

Yeah, I thought the sun looked really funky too. I'm not usually a big fan of sun shots like that, but people seem to like them, so I said what the heck, and here it is. Thank you.

It's actually a good composition too. You have observed the Rule of Thirds, and it's also a good thing you didn't put the sun in the centre. Next time you should try to shoot in RAW instead of JPG. That way you'll get some extra colour information and a higher dynamic range.

I keep hearing about shooting in RAW. My bro. tried it and I'm not positive how it turned out for him. I must investigate.

Actually you won't notice the difference until you start to do some post editing. Since it's 16 bit (JPG is 8 bit) you can bring out more details in the dark and the light areas afterwards. You'll be quite surprised sometimes. RAW is also used for producing HDR images and other 'weird' things. But in most cases you'll be just fine using JPG. Read some more here: [link]

Yeah, I hear it has a lot more details. I'm yet to try it though. Thank you for the link. I'll check it out now.

I couldn't tell. I was about to upload a different one that was way off, but I caught it in time. I think I'm just being paranoid. Thanks so much dear.
