Flare Again! by taffy

Flare Again!

CSC-29 has gotten under my photographer skin! I see sun flares wherever I go. This tower is on the grounds of the Circle M, the current iteration of a restaurant that is in what at one time was the rectory for the Catholic church. The sun was bright, the sky was cloudless and bright blue, the temperature had dropped to the 70s and the humidity was under control. And I hadn't noticed that yesterday was my 200th photo. So I thought this captures the feeling of having surpassed 200 as of tonite. Amazing feeling!
My other album for today, working to create a silhouette: http://365project.org/taffy/the-also-ran-ph/2013-07-20

Fabulous sun flare! So striking against the deep blue sky. Congrats on 200! Such a great milestone on this journey. One day one, I didn't allow myself to think of taking 200 photos. That would have been way to overwhelming to ponder, but now we are here!

Oh, my, oh, my . . . 200? You've been so diligent . . . I've taken all of mine but I'd better get busy and post the last few days and get caught up to my 200. We're in a hotel with $30 internet . . . but it's super fast and we get an entire 1000mb to use!

I like how this photo feels like a man-made tower of some kind of "light from the heavens" . . . and I like the color of the sky against the tower, too. A well positioned sun flare!

Same for me- if I hadn't read the it was day 200 on someone else's post, I would have gone right past it too. Good shot!
