Sunny Valentines

Happy Valentines Day! Here is a flower :)



I don't really have any "Valentines" pictures, but I do have some of leaves that kind of look like hearts...





If you squint your eyes. :)

The weather was so gorgeous the other day that I couldn't help but take my camera on a little trip outside. The sun was in such a position that I decided would be perfect to try out this "sun flare" that I have seen to frequently on pintrest.



To create sun flare with a DSLR, you set your aperture to as large a number as you can. I used my 50mm prime lens and had my aperture at about F/14 or 16 the whole time. I had my ISO set at 400 for most of the pictures.













***It is very hazardous to look directly at the sun (even through a view finder). I recommend getting a general idea of where the sun is and trying your best to get the picture without actually looking at the sun.

I hope everyone likes the pictures :) Which one is your favorite?
