Forest Lightshow IIby ~da-phil

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Landscapes

I'm so thankful for the last two days which have been very sunny, after awful days of boring darkness and desolation...

And this is my tribute to the awesome sun

I had to blend 3 layers, one basic exposure, one to get rid of the lens flare and one for the extreme light to maintain some detail in the sunlight. Unfortunately I discovered red dustspots on my CPL (from the case) too late, hence I had to spend some time cloning out the worst...

This shot was captured in the Western Woods Augsburg, Germany.

UPDATE: After thinking about the frame format again I wasn't quite satisfied with the original 4:3 aspect ratio, hence I changed it into a more panoramic one, which I like way more

What do you think?
