Sun Flare — AI Lighting filter

Backlit haze with a dreamy lens flare.

Backlit, hazy, with a lens flare blooming across the frame — the sun-flare look that defines dreamy portrait photography. This filter positions a low sun behind you and lets it misbehave: atmospheric haze, glowing edges, a flare that washes part of the frame in light. It's romantic by construction; the technique exists because photographers discovered that technically 'wrong' backlight photographs feelings better than correct light ever did.
