taking photos into the sun

[jonny_redhorse]

I figured I try and take a few photos directly into the sun one morning a few weeks back......it wasn't at full "noon" sunlight but was surprised it worked at all...these came out not to bad ....I "fudged" em a little in photo elements......Liked the "golden effect".....fun playing with em...jonny

Very nice jonny. I really like that first one with the tracks leading you away. So that is what snow looks like.

Boy, I looked at the images before reading the text and thought: There's a white balance adjustment waiting to happen!

Jonny, glad you did that on purpose.

lol! ......Guess i'm into the "artsy" stuff !....at times anyway....... ....amazing what photo elements can do!.....and of course Picasa........ .....I did see more nuthatches chewin on a carcass again this morning...........but I'm kinda carcassed out! ...I did see a bald eagle about a hundred yards perched in a tree but the bird took off as I approached the deer carcass...I noticed the chicadees and nuthatches looked "bigger" then the ones at my feeders...plenty of "protein" makes em bigger I guess......I watched em literally "tunnel" through the snow into the "inside" of the carcass!..amazing! I'm learning to really respect these little nuthatches...assertive little tenacious feeders!....if they were the size of a vulture,I might not get to close! ...... .....jonny
