I visited one of our local universities this afternoon in search of photo opportunities. This young lady told me she was happy to be able to soak up some sunshine while she studied for a test.
I didn't have a lens hood with me (silly me on such a sunny, bright day) as the lens flare in this image clearly shows. Sometimes I like lens flares, sometimes not. I think I would have preferred this image without the lens flare.
I love the POV here too. I don't think the lens flare detracts but it doesn't add either. I'm sure the uni would be pleased to have this as a promotional picture.
