We made it there and back again, and it was amazing!

A little bit of fun with lens flare. This was taken somewhere just outside of Fort Collins, CO.

When taking a shot like this I usually take a few exposures, one that doesn’t have any flare and is a good clean image to work with, then for fun I take a couple with a ridiculous amount of lens flare positioned how I want it. Now the strange thing is that I end up liking the images composed with lens flare a bit more.
