This shot is real, no trick. The sun is divided by a cloud. The island you see is Neuwerk.
I took the shot at the nroth sea from Sahlenburg, Cuxhaven, Germany. The lighthouse in the middle is about 8 km away.

Sun pillars seen during last nights sunset.
A sun pillar is a vertical shaft of light extending upward or downward from the sun. Typically seen during sunrise or sunset, sun pillars form when sunlight reflects off the surfaces of falling ice crystals associated with thin, high-level clouds (like cirrostratus clouds).
Taken on the promenade at Ilfracombe, North Devon as the sun was going down these two people just walked up to have a look they could see me with the camera but took no notice and this is the result, fabulous!!
Along the Seward Highway in Alaska, between the Portage turnoff and Girdwood. The visibility on the road was very poor on this particular afternoon, but a small burst of sun lit up the fog.

Vintage 1980 Ray-Ban Sunglasses. Width 11,5 cm cropped to 7,5 cm. Horizontal flip. Sunscreen 50 SPF reflected.
The best SunSmart steps:
1 Slip on covering clothing. Choose clothing that covers as much skin as possible, for example, collared shirts with long sleeves...
2 Slop on SPF 30 (or higher) broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen...
3 Slap on a hat...
4 Seek shade...
5 Slide on some sunglasses...
Why Is Sun Protection Important?
We all need some sun exposure. When skin is exposed to the sun, our bodies make vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium for stronger, healthier bones. It only takes a little time in the sun for most people to get the vitamin D they need (and most vitamin D needs should be met with a healthy diet and/or supplements).
Too much unprotected exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause skin damage, eye damage, immune system suppression, and skin cancer. Even people in their twenties can develop skin cancer.
How Do Sunburns Happen?
The sun radiates light to the earth, and part of that light consists of invisible UV rays. When these rays reach the skin, they cause tanning, burning, and other skin damage.
UVA rays cause skin ageing and wrinkling and contribute to skin cancer, such as melanoma (the most dangerous form of skin cancer). UVA rays pass easily through the ozone layer, so they make up the majority of our sun exposure.
UVB rays are also dangerous, causing sunburns, cataracts (clouding of the eye lens), and effects on the immune system. They also contribute to skin cancer, and melanoma is thought to be associated with severe UVB sunburns before age 20.
UV rays react with a chemical called melanin that's found in skin. A sunburn develops when the amount of UV exposure is greater than what can be protected against by the skin's melanin. The risk of damage increases with the amount and intensity of exposure. A tan is itself a sign of skin damage and does not help protect the skin.

The Hope Valley is a large, wide valley running East-West along the boundary between the gritstone moors and edges of the 'Dark Peak' and the limestone outcrops and deep cut dales of the 'White Peak'.
Possibly one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen in a long time happened this evening on the West Coast of Scotland and oh my, it certainly caught me by surprise. Going out with the camera was a last minute decision and just look at what I would have missed had I stayed at home.
I tell what I would have missed if I would have stayed home, wet feet! That's the thing when you shoot at the coast, you have to remember that it is tidal in these parts so that you don't get wet feet.
I have to credit The Stranglers (one of my all time favourite bands) with the title for this one.
When I built this look, it was a totally different process for me. Taking learnings with several friends in SecondLife, a body proportion guide and seeing what the best 'fit' was. From there, making customizations and changes that my eye wanted to express. The response has been great as I let my more feminine/andro avatar take a much deserved vacation.
One of my favorite comments has been about having a 'Greek God' appearance and as I dig through my inventory, found this homage to Apollo from Fallen Gods that felt fun for taking a photo today. Is there anything better than feeling like a bringer of Sun and light.
The song today is "Sun King" by the Cult, the opening track to the Sonic Temple release, what a ripping way to start the whole release.
Favorite words:
"Hey, look out, little missy's about
Ripping up the town, yeah
Honey, I can't tie you down
Woman, you make me frown
Long legged lady with a black dress on
On my knees, mama please
I'm a regal man
I'll do what I can
To t-t-take you to the promised land
A sun king, baby
Let me take you by the hand
Yeah, sun king, honey
We can rule across this land
I'm a sun king, baby, baby
With you, I'll share my throne
A sun king, honey
I can't make it on my own, yeah"
This was my little pose, no post process as viewed in BlackDragon viewer.
