nice idea, but too bright, i think. washes out the sculpture entirely.

The sun is too strong in this shot. I understand that you are probably going for a silhoette effect but the sun distracts too much.

The glare and the radial color shift/rays/whatever, really take away from the beauty an interesting subject. Did you try experimenting with faster shutter/higher F-stop setting combinations in manual mode? That might make the sun less powerful while still giving you a nice sillouette. Hope this is helpful. :)

It is a good study of 'Victorian' wrought iron perhaps modern The sun intersecting it and the trees make a decent picture.

Just alittle bit too dark, but probably the only way when you shoot right into the sun

Nice image - takes the viewer somewhere and the colors are great. Rare to get a flare like that which works. - 7

nice use of the sun as an added element of interest against the subject. too many tree branches in the background distract from the sundial, though.
