Bright but still threatening! Definitely started to get brighter, but still those menacing clouds which were with us all week. Should point out that it can be dangerous to ones health taking photos of the sun.....preferable to use the live view screen rather than viewfinder. Prolonged exposure can also affect the sensor so beware! This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
