The technique used in the pic
(shooting directly at sun) is called smudging.

The technique is to filter the light source (sun) well beyond the camera's
abilities, using an object at hand.
In this case I used two pairs of sunglasses, shooting through both lenses.
Pretty clever, aye? Won't work well unless you have pretty expensive glasses,
which we do.

And don't pull a Nil and claim that you "meant" that the CAMERA "takes"
no filters ... poor sentence construction is no excuse for lame
equivocation.
