Thanks for looking.

Love the colored sky in the first one, and the way the rays illuminate the grasses in that second one K! Very well done!

You know Khaos every time I see the suns rays so defined, I can't help but have the word "GLORY" come to mind ....... one thing I don't get to see much of is Sunrises and Sunsets, this is bound to change during my visit to America in the next few weeks

Thank you for reminding me what I'm missing out on ....... Skippy (Australia)

Hey K - nice rays. Did you use a different WB setting between the two shots? The colors are drastically different. I have to say I prefer the blue.

Thanks Phil.

The first one was taken with a different lens and I had a polarizer on it. I also deepened it a little using selective color in photoshop.

I always let the 20D autoset the WB and I adjust later post processing if needed.

AJ,

Thanks. I was trying for that effect. It ain't easy because I tend to be tempted to expose to get everything as well lit as possible.:D

Maxine,

Thanks. There's no sunsets and rises in Austraila? I take it you're far inland and it's flat? Over here in the states, it really matters a lot where you are. I live in a hilly area and near the great lakes, so i can some decent ones. I'm going to try to get some good ones in the Caribbean this August.

Being near water is always good for sun shots.
