I love to stare at the sun. It’s bad, but it leaves cool trails. I don’t do it much (no worries mom) just now and again.
I think I love sun flares about as much. Thankfully, my iPhone can enjoy looking at the sun for much more extended periods of time. So much do that I’m sure it not only meets, but exceeds the flair requirements. Today, I shot the photo looking through binoculars, REI 10×26 to be exact. Here’s the setup I had with my Gorilla Pod and Glif iPhone tripod attachment.
