Sunflare Enhancement Preset
When capturing a photograph in which the sun strikes the lens, contrast is reduced dramatically, often making the image appear to be improperly shot, or even a mistake. However sun flare can be a purposeful, artistic tool with stunning results, when the light is correctly processed globally and shaped locally.

Combining the right Signature or Foundation Preset with a custom brush preset for enhancing or creating sun flare will provide a quick way to achieveĀ a creative vision!
