My version of the Sunstar effect
Well, I had to try this Sunstar effect as well while at Silver Falls. F16 seemed to be where showed best for me.

Eric,
Thats a pretty dynamic sunstar. I'll have to give you an "A" for this one. Very cool!

A smite bit funky in the contrast area as far as the techs go...and I might select the upper quadrant of the image and remove the blue cast...but I like this effect with the fall colors.

A very dramatic sunstar. I think there is a little work to be done as Rick mentioned, but a very cool image.

Cool shot! I also see the bluish cast but it's cool with the fall leafs below. Really well done.

Eric, I woiuld have to agree with Rck here. I find it a bit to strong, otherwise a fine composition
