This shot is straight out of the camera and, as you can see, I didn't Photoshop the wires out. I took it last night from our street. A very unusual sunset for us, probably because we has so many fires burning in California right now.
Typically, I don't post photos with lens flares, but I thought this photo came out really cool and very dramatic. The lens flares don't necessarily add to the photo, but I don't think they take away from it, either.

If you plan the night ahead, you can decide to wear sweats to bed instead of jammies. Then, when you get up early to go outside and shoot photomagraphs without getting dressed first, you won't look stupid as stupid.

When I woke up to the fog this morning, I decided to make a quick tour around the area. I finally got a decent combination of light and fog on Best Road @ Richie Road, near Lake Summerset.
Horizon a little crooked...
Hardly any clouds...
Got a big red sun instead...

The solar eclipse of January 15, 2010 is an annular eclipse of the Sun with a magnitude of 0.9190. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partially obscuring Earth's view of the Sun. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun, causing the sun to look like an annulus (ring), blocking most of the Sun's light. An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region thousands of kilometres wide.
This is the longest annular solar eclipse of the millennium, and the longest until December 23, 3043, with a maximum length of 11 mins and 7.8 seconds. (The solar eclipse of January 4, 1992 was longer, at 11 minutes, 41 seconds, occurring in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.)
It is visible only as a partial eclipse in much of Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Asia. It occurs every year within a narrow stretch of 300 km (190 mi) width across Central Africa, Maldives, South Kerala (India), South Tamil Nadu (India), North Sri Lanka, parts of Myanmar, and parts of China.

**********
Last minute's capture of the setting sun and solar eclipse before smog from the metropolis obscured my view. I guess being around the Manila Bay area was a better option compared to what my vantage point had to offer. Nevertheless, it was still a magnificent sight to behold. This image was substantially cropped from the original version using Adobe Photoshop CS4. Chromatic aberration (and lens distortion) is likewise evident, particularly along the solar and lunar limbs. That's what you get from having a "cheap" telephoto like mine. XD
Thank you all for your comments and faves!

Woke up at 5am yesterday morning in order to get to a reasonable good spot for a sunrise shoot. It has been a long while since we have made to a sunrise, simply because in the middle of summer the sun gets up way too early for us to even try and get up ;D. It was a lovely morning and we were close enough to get to Devonian Gardens for their early opening for photographers. I will share these shots a little bit later. For now, here is a sunrise on the prairies..

Manufacturer Dr Pepper Snapple Group
Introduced 1949
Sun Drop, also marketed as Sundrop, is a citrus-flavored soda produced by Dr Pepper Snapple Group. It has a yellowish-green color imparted by Yellow 5. Among soft drinks, it is known for its high caffeine content (63 mg per 12 oz can, 9 mg higher than a 12 oz can of Mountain Dew, but not as much as Vault with 70.5 mg per 12 oz can). Orange juice is an ingredient in the drink, and remaining pulp matter from the orange juice provides some of the soft drink's taste and appearance.
