Halos and the sun
Just some halo effects of the sun as it came from behind a cloud. This was taken in RGB Standard color. ISO was 100 with camera in full manual. Partial metering witht the f-stop at F20 and shutter at 1/200. The image became a b/w or sepia looking due to the intensity of the sun. I believe it was taking at approx. 9:30 AM. Using the program GIMP, I unmasked the picture, then sharpened it and then played around with lots of effects until I came upon the lens menu. The bright spot on the lower left corner started in the upper left. There is a couple of cross hairs that you move infinitely until you get what you want. I had an earlier posting of the sun coming up with a bright white spot in the clouds, that one was not touched up. I still believe that it was a reflection of some sort as the sun had not crested the horizon.
