The Savara River sources.

I'm having a lot of fun with my new toy, the amazing filter B+W 110,

capable of reducing light by a factor of 1000x (10 stops).

These are the sources of the Savara, one of the many streams you can

find in the Gran Paradiso National Park, Western Alps, Italy.

I took this picture yesterday evening at sunset, and because of the

crazy contrast between ground and sky, I was also obliged to use an 8x

GND filter together with the B+W. Autofocusing was a nightmare, but I

finally succeded and I'm pretty satisfied with the result.

Your c&c are highly appreciated, I'm eager to hear your thoughts on this.

Thanks in advance.

10x + 8x? Why don't you just leave the lens cap on?

Whatever, it works. The clouds move while the water looks still.

Wonderful shot and very interesting to know the technical details. Thanks for sharing.
