love the composition and the colours, the sun flares do not do much for me in this photo. to be honest it would have been a fab shot with out them. the shot still is good and i would of been happy to have taken it but i just do not like sun flares to much thats all

Thanks for your honest opinion Stephan, I really appreciate it. And I actually do agree with you for most part. The lens flare give some dynamic but isn't really necessary. And I actually prefered it without the lensflare but that's the risk of shooting directly into the sun ;) Anyway, the reason why I posted it is cause I love the way the sun is almost hugged by the clouds infront as well as behind it. Thanks again :)

A lovely capture ... I like the golden light and the way the sun flairs draw the eye down to the puddles at start of the track ... A most enjoyable photograph ... Cheers, Trish

i love your shot alot for sure and some times light flares help a photo, I just think in this case they distract from a super great shot the sun just above the trees fab clouds and super good colours it is a fab shot for sure. in my eyes the flares keep leading me out of the shot but that is only what i think so long as you are happy no matter what i say lol. i still love it :-)

haha... Thanks for the comment Stephan, and good to know you still love it. And what I said in the last comment, I mostly agree with you about the flare so we are on the same page ;)

Don't know about my eye, still working on getting a bit more different out of the ordinary ideas, but I am happy you like the photograph :)

Love how the sun's rays seem like golden straws, sucking up the water in the puddles! Neat capture!
