RA

[Sunny Sra]

The sun is the giver of life, controlling the ripening of crops which were worked by man. Because of the life giving qualities of the sun the Egyptians worshiped the sun as a god. The creator of the universe and the giver of life, the sun or Ra represented life, warmth and growth.

Love that sun Sunny! A very cool shot from the beach!

The cellphones of today may have more megapixels then our old DSLRs, but they had the bigger pixels...

exactly Jim. I was just thinking have we complicated it too much? this is such a simple shot...before any apps/webcams/cellphones with high megapixel cameras...

Nice homage to Ra - I like the mood of the scene with this light and clouds.

2002 is when I bought my first DSLR - a Canon D60 with an almighty 6.1mp. I do have more MP in my phone but when I play with the olde CRW files in RAW with Lightroom I feel like I have more dynamic range with those 18 year old DSLR files than what comes out of my iPhone 11 Pro.

That's when I bought my 1st DSLR...a D60, I sold it in 2012 I think and instantly regretted it

Mine didn't last anywhere near that long. I sold mine on flea bay to offset moving to a 20D in 2005.

I kept it as a backup, around 2007ish I moved to the 1ds mkII, then 5D, 5DIII and then selling off the D60.

This is a sweet shot Sunny. Sometimes you get a special image like this and never get a repeat chance.

Really nice, Sunny.
