that's pretty, but it's hard to take pictures directly at the sun without overexposing it. kind of looks like a nuclear explosion with no detail on the trees. this isn't criticism, it's just something worth noting with these kinds of shots.

i've found it useful to use a tripod and take one shot metered on the sun, and one shot metered on the trees, then composite them together in photoshop.

yuck. no shadow detail *at* all. you'll either have to manually tweak the raw to extract shadow detail (a perilous undertaking if your camera is noisy!), reshoot with massive exposure bracketing to get the max dynamic range out of your rather limited sensor, or switch to film (still king for tricky situations like this!) or something like the Finepix S3 that has lovely overexposure latitude.

or take another shot at good exposure for the leaves and overlay it, like the previous poster said. might turn out well.

A DSC-U20. Awesome, that was my first digicam and it really got me interested in photography :)

Are you mad? What did you do to the sky? Why did you do it to the sky? You hurt the sky! The sky will hurt you!

to elaborate... your brightening of the original image is causing weird artifacts appear in the sky. that grayness you see in the artifacts is some of your color channels clipping before the others - there _is_ exposure information, but it doesn't exist for all channels. I strongly suggest you reshoot.

I love it too. I think it is the use of the word mad. It's a brilliant comment
