You are going to have to divulge your secret as of late! Man you just get better and better and I do mean that! One day it was like you just "got it" or something and every image since then has been amazing! This image is nothing short of amazing, who cares how many rays are out there? This is an eye popping wow John! Shoot as many rays as you can!!! This is one for you to be proud of! Excellent and a *favorite*!


John Loreaux   {K:85782} 7/26/2005
Brenda, First off THANKS!!!!!!THANKS for YOUR comments!!!!
Second!THANKS, thanks for inspiration, the only answer to how I 'turned on the switch' would be ,looking at other peoples photos like YOURS!!!!!!!!!
When You see images that blow You away You just say, "I gotta try that shot, or that composition, or that time of day, or whatever it is You like about the photo! You have some of the most gorgeous sunsets and silhouettes on the site and I am VERY fortunate to have some EXCELLENT photographers as 'FRIENDS'!!!It's a pleasure to have met You here Brenda!!!! THANKS again!!!GOD bless!!

Beautiful, John. Whenever I try this, the beams that are clearly visible to the naked eye seem to have disappeared in the photograph.

I like how you managed to catch the sunrays passing through the clouds falling on the silhouettes of the trees.
Good capture my friend,

Wow- I do love this one. Many thanks for your comments on my tribute to my Dad photo last week. I think God talks to me through the sky- moments like these always take my breath away and make me awestruck by our creator. Your portfolio is wonderful. I enjoyed it very much- and I absolutely LOVE your description of what lens and film you used here!! Thanks for the smile today!
