When we walked along the beach on Fuerteventura less than two weeks ago, we noticed some beautiful sun rays. I find it hard to made good photos sun rays, especially over water, since the image often needs some more element than just the rays and the water. This time, I noticed some branches in the vicinity and I put one of them in the image as the main object. I used f/9, but since the branch was quite close, the rays is out of focus which adds to the photo in my opinion.

There’s a lot of photos of the magnificent Horseshoe Bend. This is one of mine. The clouds over the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument provided a nice backdrop this day.

Single shot, no HDR. Canon 17-40/4L at 17 mm on my venerable 5D Mk.I.
