Sunbeams and Sunsets

I dont always get to shoot the sunbeams that I see and some can be a challenge to photograph and capture as well, due to the contrast involved. But I still try !!

I was on my way to work the other evening and spotted this one forming up and so I returned home after shooting two photos of it with my phone camera and shot these two from the ballpark by the City Pool….the sky was an amazing blue and I tweaked it just a bit with my editing program to really bring it out and show the sunbeams better….
