This was taken at Point Prim, Prince Edward Island, Canada, just after several recent posts of the Point Prim lighthouse. The image is unretouched except for having removed a small lense reflection in the lower right quad. I don't know why the sun appears like this in the image. Any ideas? Dave

I have no idea...maybe some one with a brighter mind than mine will be able to give you some insight into this one, and I think that if I keep up being so "punny" I'll not be allowed to post on this site anymore..lol...it's a unique capture, but a brilliantly taken one, and I wish I had an answer for you. I'm going to subscribe to this discussion so I can find out the answer too :)PJ

Good one Dave, well I think it knows it's about to get wet and it's a little peeved. 6 yrs of college wasted. LMAO

No idea what may have caused it but it certainly is brilliance in the gorgeous orange sky. Truly a beautiful scene. Thanks for sharing it.

All the wonders you seek are within yourself. Always glad to see visitors at My Gallery and thanks for your continued kind words and constant support. Anita
The horizon is a little off by about a half-degree counter-clockwise, but other than that it looks like it was a very peaceful sunset. From doing some quick searching on Google, it looks like this kind of effect can be the result of properties of the lens you used.

I love how the Sun looks in this picture. It's dreamy! The shot is just perfect and a really nice silohuette of the plants against the horizon. Good work!

It's a beautiful shot Dave with the darkened trees and shrubs in the foreground. My guesses about the sun looking like a star are that it must be an optical aberration caused by your lens or something in the atmosphere. I have never seen the sun looking like this, but I would ask you if it looked like this when you weren't looking through the viewfinder.
Other than that, I would say you've been blessed. I've heard that the sun can do amazing things like come close to the earth as it did at Fatima. So that leaves the question: Is it physics or metaphysics?

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

Very beautiful and interesting shot Dave. The golden colors and the darkened trees are simply beautiful in this. I have no idea why the sun appeared this way but If I were you, I would consider myself lucky to have captured it.
