Lens flare effect

[clodomi]

Do you know the lens flare effect like this one:

Is it possible to do the same in Panorama Flash Player?
Who likes that effect?

Hey clodomi,

I don't think this effect is necessary. Actually I'm trying not to get such lens flares when taking the photos, so why should I want to manually add them later? :-)

mm i think it could give a nice effect,

if u photograph a lens flare it isnt nice because its static.. but when it moves if u are panning or orbiting in the panorama it would be a cool extra effect :)

Lens flare is very useful when you have the sun in your panorama (e.g. you can't stand under a tree shadow etc).

Even when shooting HDR (high dynamic range) you always get the area around the sun burnt out and it's nice to cover this area with something.

Lens flare can be made as a plugin, that only takes the coordinates of the sun as input.
