this blooming beast - I hate it! but today on the way home I couldn't resist the light. There's a bit of my filter showing at the top of the pic.





Anyone want some scrap?

Shame the top of the wing got chopped off...
Regarding the vignetting from the wide lens/filter, but usually if you step your aperture down somewhat, it will become less noticeable.

I'd love to see a picture of the angel with the sun directly behind the head - wonder if it would make it appear that there's a halo?

Thanks for the tip on the vignetting.

and here's one with the full wing - still don't like it!
and the right wing looks like his...well I leave you to guess.
