The Sun right after sunrise at 10,000 ft above sea level. No photo highlights or edit of any kind. All natural camera blurs and glares. Haleakalā volcano delivers stunning view to the sunrise & sunset watches, well paid off after getting up middle of a night and a wiggly drive to the summit of the this natural crater on Maui, Hawaii.
Canon EOS REBEL T4i, f/32, 1/4000sec, ISO6400, 56mm. Lens Canon EF-S 18-135mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS USM

Air was perfect, comparing to the cold before the sunrise to the heat after .... but taking 3-4 hour into the crater without water was one mistake, will never forget not to repeat LOL TNX!

You did a good job of using the camera lens to make its own glare and star filter effect!

I don't remember which filter I was using .... crashed it over Maui volcanic rocks, having another one now :) While quality, granularity in particular, is killing here, I like softness, palette, and patterns of the glares. Thank you, Diane!!

Oh, I misunderstood then. I thought you didn't use a filter, because you said:
If you used a filter, it was not exactly natural. LOL! Nothing wrong with that of course, just like there is nothing wrong with post processing, which used to be done in the darkroom. :-)

haha! sorry for being not precise, I am not a pro, just prock-tographer :) I did use good quality polarized lens filter, which crashed, regular one, not any color or other special filters. Did not alter the shot with software :) Like in music it might be a grand natural sound you can't ever make, while studio can do the magic and/or highlight the best values. Not religious to either extreme, but loving where art meets the craft and bending the genres and stereotypes .... well duhh, is must be a million and one shots where shooter like me points directly to the sun and see what happens LOL

It gives from very cool effects sometimes, but you have to be careful not to destroy your camera lens or your eyes if the sun is too high in the sky. LOL!

I find photos taken above clouds to be fascinating. Sometimes it appears like a different world!
On a technical question, why did you have such high ISO? came out quite noisy, no?

The answer is very non-technical - I got overexcited at the event, keep forgetting about knobs and dials LOL It is all like pebbles, guilty as charged :) Still every time I come across this one in my folder it gets me back to that theatrical morning on Mars :)
