Many thanks for that, Steven. The new-to-me software of Silver Efex Pro has certainly opened some doors. I'm posting a third monochrome series shortly.

The shadows of the trees, makes it appear as though the sun is a person; the sun being the head and the trees it's very long legs, right up to it's neck (as Rod Steward would say)

The "person" idea was one of the reasons I chose to post this one, Linda. I quite liked the long legs. I would like to say that I saw this when I took the shot, but not so. I saw strong shadows and the light streaks, but not the "person" at that point.

Interesting that you saw it only after. Luck is with you!

Shooting into the Sun is not without problems - like being blinded!! So there is a big element of chance about what you get in the shot.
