Findhorn Sunset

Low cloud catches the last rays of sunlight on their undersides

painting them with vivid splashes of fiery red. The whole effect

being doubled in mirror calm reflection.

excellent color.

if this picture was taken with out filtre, I think, it is espectacular because of the exactly moment when you capture it.

Fascinate and perfect in details and shadows.

Congratulations

Ian, simply beautiful. Great color tones, exposure and cropping.

How many ways can I say WOW....This is stunning to say the least would have love to see a Pan view of this one!

Hi Mario the only filter used is a 0.6 ND grad filter it is a neutral colour (uncoloured) and is used to balance the sky and reflection so that they record on film in a similar manner to that automatically accounted for by your own eyes.

Ian, a magnificent capture of a beautiful and tranquil scene. I see you use a hard edge ND filter. I only have the grad version. Do you use both and which do you use more often? thanks - Colin

.....as beautiful can be Ian. Most wonderful sky and reflections of it on the water surface. Great moody sunset scene....Best regards, Harry

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. Colin I would estimate I use the hard edged filter 85% of the time. However you need to use it very carefully utilising your depth of field preview at the desired aperture to really accurately align your differential areas of exposure. Sometimes it's use is impossible and I revert back to the soft grads.
