Do you know how to take photos of the sun?
The rising sun and the setting sun are 2 great opportunities to take amazing photos. Who doesn’t love a great sun photo, right?
But do you find that every time you try to take a photo of the sun it doesn’t quite come out right? The sky is washed out and the sun looks like a big blur?
There’s a better way to snap shots of the sun. Here are some simple tips to follow:
-Tap on your screen where the sky is.
-This exposes for the sky and not for the foreground elements.
-Next, after you take your photo, brighten the shadows in a photo editor.
-It’s easier to brighten than to try to recover overexposed highlights in the photo.
