Beautiful shot. Definitely photography. Great idea using HDR to enhance.

It is absolutely beautiful. I'd say it's both photography and art. Nicely done.

An artful photograph. As many have said, you used a camera, captured what you saw: Photo!

The attached photograph was shot a few months ago. I live near the ocean and, on some mornings, there is a layer of mist over the area. As the sun comes up, there is an interval in which the mist is still there, but the sun is starting to become visible. During this time, the effects shown in the photo can be seen. It is very difficult to capture with a camera. I have tried many times, but only a few attempts have worked out.

Let me know if you have any questions or comments.


I like this very much. Quite artistic. And, the fact that this is a natural occurrence then it is certainly a wonderful photograph. I'd hang it on my wall.

Beautiful capture! Since photography is a visual art form, it's both.

It is a photograph you processed to bring out more an existing phenomenon.

If we go by the dictum that a photograph should stand alone and explain itself, then your offering falls short in the sense that it requires a caption or words for the viewer to appreciate it as intended.

That said, your photograph makes me curious as to how the condition produces a visible spectrum of light instead of white light.

The photo is real and the rainbow effects are naturally occurring. I did, however, use an HDR processing program to enhance the effect. This bring up a question I have had for a while about such things. At what point does it cease to be photography?

This photo was shot using a macro lens. I didn't think that was the right choice for such photographs, but it was the one that was on the camera that morning.

If anyone cares, it was shot using a Fuji X-Pro2 with an 80mm macro lens. The exposure was at 1/125 of a second at F11 and an ISO of 1000.

Let me know if you have any questions or comments.
