My thanks go to J A C S for choosing my flower field to be the winner of last MC. This MC is about the sun (in the northern hemisphere it is winter now).

It can be photos with the sun actually in it in some prominent way, or just the sun light being one of the "subjects" of the image. It is open to your interpretation.

The challenge will close on Thursday, December 13th at 23:59 pm GMT +1.

Challenge Rules

The host gives you a topic and you post up to three images that fit. Remember, it's all about fun, sharing, and learning. Any picture you have taken in person is eligible, regardless of time taken, camera or post-processing used.

The host chooses the winners and honorable mentions and posts those in a new thread. The host's decision is final. The winner of this challenge then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner of that one, and so on it goes. The winner of this challenge will have 48 hours to post the next challenge. If that doesn't happen, 2nd place will have 24 hours to do so, then it's up to 3rd place.

Submission Posting Guidelines

Post each one of your three submissions in its own reply to this post. Give each post a unique Subject, please. It's best to embed an image in its post rather than linking to somewhere else. Feel free to post photos "for exhibition only" if you want to share more than three or won't be available to host the next challenge. Try to preserve the EXIF please, so we can see which camera, lens, and settings were used.

Comment Posting Guidelines

Feel free to post comments on the images or ask for comments. Don't hesitate to click on the green "Like" thumb on the top right of the post, so we know which images were most popular. The host can make up his or her own mind without being influenced by that.

Only taken a couple of days ago, with my new Canon M50, am getting older and need something a bit lighter, although was taken with my Sigma 18-250mm with Canon adaptor

From the roof of the car park at Universal Orlando, the sx220 nailed the colour of the sky perfectly, never seen such before.

At Kennedy Space Ctr. This was taken with little sx220, it’s not the greatest capture ever, but I really like the sun being right behind the rocket.

Almost a lucky shot, we where walking a cloudy day along this river with a group of photographers, I was the only one to cross the river to get a different angle of this pool when the sun came just long enough for me to re-frame to get those rays.

I'm tempted to just spam sunset shots but since that's easy I'll limit myself to just one :-D
