The (partial) background ( and source of the flare) was the reflected light from a very bright wall, the foreground ( also called subject material) was a group of dancers under a tall roof..... so I was shooting under the roof, while the wall was a long way away, but visible in a corner of the image area Exposure was 1 / 250 at F2.8... background would have been sunny 16..... F16 at 1 /160.... M8, UV/IR Filter on the lens. Do you think I would have had the same results if I had used a different 90? AA? PS.. Did not get flare using my Tri Elmar.....F4 @ 1/125... same camera position, obviously different field of view.... Frank Filippone Red735i at earthlink.net
