27th November 2017

It's rained most of today, so sharing a cheery sunset from a few weeks ago seems a good idea!
Anyone remember all those photographic magazines in the 80s which used to solemnly explain why
we shouldn't shoot directly into the sun? Contre-jour has since become one of my favourite ways
of shooting. But I suppose it's useful to know what the 'rules' are in order to break them? ;-)

Intentional shooting into the sun can have great results. It's the accidental ones that I see happening that are destined for failure. :) V

Yes, I agree just getting a fine shot like this is a thrill! V

Its the same in music... one needs to know the rules! This is very effective and gives
the image a dreamy appearance.

A perfect example of rules are meant to be broken...it's lovely.

I'm with you and I love shooting at the sun. I don't believe in rules!

So beautiful and it works so well shooting towards the sun, thank you for your comment on my version.

Beautiful. Could be a book cover.
