Spiritual Sun Rays !!

One thing, I really love when taking photos of sunsets is when them sun rays appear in your photos, pointing your camera to the sun is when them sun rays appear sometimes you might actually see them sun rays in the sky as the sun is setting and then other times they will just appear in your photos that's why, I call them spiritual sun rays like someone giving you a sign of something out there but who knows who ever, it is that makes them sun rays appear in your photos, I like that spiritual person but to be honest you shouldn't be pointing your camera directly to sunlight unless you are using a solar filter otherwise can do damage to your camera. The actually term that photographers use when sun rays appear in your photos is called "Lens Flare" this happens when a bright light enters your camera lens hits the camera's sensor and scatters onto your photo.

OK enough of technical talk, here I am going to present to you some various formations and colors of sun rays some in color and some in black and white from my collection on my travels around Australia and overseas and it's really hard to say which one, is my favorite, but I have decided to go with these magical, spiritual sun rays taken on my vacation on Fraser Island in Australia.
