Too much glare can do weird things

[Bololoco]

This was a strange picture. I shot it into the sun and the glare was all encompassing. I decided to put it through a haze removal filter to get clean it up but instead, the sky just went black.

The original picture (top one) has no other adjustments, although it was shot as a HDR series

I've added two variations, a black and white and another with radically altered colours, just to see what else may be hidden in the information.

It's not a brilliant picture but it is interesting to see what weird stuff a camera can do

You are awful, but I do like you...

Photographically, I must add...

I think you are mixing up your sitcoms - though, do you actually remember the Dick Emery Show?

The first one at the top looks like an infra red shot...

Yes, I definitely am mixing up my sitcoms....and I remember them both very well.

As for the infra-red look....it's purely accidental....I really didn't do anything other than put it through haze removal. I managed to get that effect on another picture that had also had too much glare, so I think it's something to do with how Affinity photo handles over exposed information.
