Re: question and website

Very nice work Daniel.

I think that Tom is right when he refers to flare. I've had this happen
to me as well. It's interesting that the flare seems to be almost
identical in all cases, because it comes from flare on a circular hole.
If you look at flare on a lens photograph, it will generally reproduce
the shape of the iris. Yet, iris flare does not usually have the kind
of "breaking wave" pattern which shows up on your prints (or mine, for
that matter).

My two favorites are "sushade" and "palms". It feels like ancient times
pacific island or asia imagery, close to early autochromes. Very nice
composition in both cases: very stable in the case of "sunshade" and
quite dynamic in the case of "palms".

Best wishes,

Guy
