Weekly Informal Challenge number 125 is "A Touch of Sun"

Never shoot into the Sun or so they say. Not this week. Break the coveted rule and use the effect having the sun in front of your lens can allow you. It's about the light and using it to accentuate the image. Play around, experiment, find "new spirits" and have fun. I'm posting this today hoping between now and Monday you have some sun to experiment with.

Examples:

"'A Touch of Sun in the Sails", taken yesterday at the "Parade of Sail" before I came home to see what Scott had posted. I think it fits the Challenge well.
It was taken from the "Pilot" an Escort Boat belonging to the Maritime Museum of San Diego.
As a Volunteer Photographer for the Museum I was covering the "Parade of Sails". You can see more here: http://www.pbase.com/amoxtli/festival_of_sail_san_diego_2012

Here's mine. We got some sun this morning but it's going fast. Heavy rain the rest of the weekend. Good luck everyone in the east. If you have sun, go for it NOW. :)
