Hi Nandakumar,

There is a very pleasing simplicity and peacefulness to this but I don't think the bottom righthand cornrt works with that.

Love the gentle tones in the rest of the shot.

Thank you very much, Sharon; i felt the tree adds something, but was not sure

I don't think that she was referring to the trees, but rather the area outside of the lens flair in that corner.
IMHO, the central part of the image is stellar, including the trees.
Maybe if you could figure a way to keep the "circle of light" and "fix" the lower corners.
Maybe make a round selection of that "circle of light">invert>apply distortion to pull the corners down and out???

Very clever, Chauncey!

Boyer thank you for your correction and suggestions; i am not (at all) an edit expert; so if i attempt that can worsen what has been achieved

Hi Nandakumar. This image has a lot going for it!

Concerning the lens flair, particularly in the lower right corner, I once read that

"If there are strong lines in the scene, try to get them to disappear into the corner. If the lines break into the center or the edge, it tends to divide the photo, but disappearing into a corner seems to make composition stronger."

Although you can't get the lens flair to intersect the corner of the image, you might be able to tone it down a bit so that, like the other three corners of the image, it doesn't come across as though it's dividing the scene?

Frank, thank you very much; I really understand and appreciate your point, which you made very lucid

This is obviously personal taste and a quirk of mine, but it always bothers me when symmetrical things are not even in a photo unless it is clearly off to one side. In this case -- to me at least -- the circle is just close enough to the center of the frame that I can't help but notice that it's not. Maybe you could try either cropping the sun in the center or moving it off to one side a little more, perhaps adding some room (if you have it) on the left, and see what you get. But like I said, it's probably just me.

Didace; thank you very much; i too would have been more happy if things happened that way; but i noticed what really had happened only later while going through the day's works

That's the beauty of digital...you can't spoil the original!

...and yes..I did just mean the corner. The tree is lovely!

Thank you Sharon very much; that was my mistake
