Sunset, with amber flare, on the River Clyde - (Laowa 1.33 Front Anamorphic Adapter (Amber) attached to a Tamron 85mm f/1.8 SP Di VC USD)

Dumbarton

The adapter uses cylindrical lens elements to compress the horizontal field of view by a factor of 1.33x.

These elements bend light differently than spherical lenses, especially when bright sources (like the sun or streetlights) hit the glass at an angle.

This bending causes internal reflections along the horizontal axis—what we perceive as anamorphic flares.

An impressive capture my friend but I for one would not want to see too many of my photos with such a red band. A mot interest explanation of your lens set-up. Well done.
