I saw the sun is rising directly behind this statue of the Virgen de la Peña, which sits above the entrance to a little chapel, and wanted to capture a photo where it looks like the sun is the statue's halo.
Getting the shot was not easy, because I had to use a telephoto lens to get the composition I wanted. But when shooting directly into the sun with a telephoto lens, you can't use the viewfinder because it could burn your eyes. And even though the Pentax K-7 has live view, I only got the right shot on the 10th attempt.
