Thematic A Flair for Flare

50-200WR. I thought it would be worse. The rainbow feature at the bottom left was actually in the sky.

Agree - and there's that bird again!

Nice backlighting.

Nick,

Great shot (post 273). Great backlighting and airy feel. Wish there actually wasn't the lens flare in the bottom though. Ironic, isn't it?

Thank you! I love my portraits back lit

Yes I dislike the bottom left too!! The sigma 35mm in the flare, would include that rainbow orb in most of the flare shots I have with it! Can be a good element to a photo, or not (in this case its on her so, this image could have done without that part)

I think this must be flare as I don't recall seeing a rainbow at the time!
