White Water

in #photofeed8 years ago (edited)

Here's a shot from the end of my hike up and down Mt. Washington. I was near the end of the hike and crossed this stream, so I went back to my car and grabbed my tripod and some filters to take this with! I'm loving using ND filters and polarizing filters. They open up so many options! This was taken with a 10-stop ND filter and a polarizing filter stacked on each other.

Great use of the ND filter, love it!

Thanks! It's been so much fun to play around with.

Dang dude! This is super nice.
Just a word of friendly constructive criticism, I would watch for your vignetting affecting your sky and leaves. I can see it darkening the very top of the sky a bit too much (at least for my tastes) and is a different from the sky directly below it, and that attracts my attention a little bit since it's a little bit too unnatural. Other than that, this is killer!

Thanks friendo!

Thanks for the feedback, I totally agree that the sky and trees look bad at the top! I'd have to go check to be sure, but I'm fairly confident I didn't do any manual vignetting, I think that's just from having my ND and circular polarizing filter stacked on each other. Any ideas for how to prevent that? It may help to not pull down the highlights so much or something, not sure.

great photo.
what ND filters are you using? i bought a cheap one just to have one, not so great.

Thanks Bil! I've been using this filter mostly and it's been working really well! Combining it with a circular polarizing filter is really helpful too.

this is an ok price, will have to see could i find it here. thanks

Yeah, I don't know know about options in the country you're in (is it Serbia?), but hope you're able to find something like it! I hope to see your results in the future :)

yap it is Serbia. just looked, no Ice filters, it looks like Hoya has a monopoly or just got to popular so everyone is selling it. looks i am stuck for now with my Fotga variable 10$ filter.

Ahhh, too bad. Darn Hoya!

Lovely shot.
Can you suggest me a cheap ND10?

Thank you! I use an ICE filter that is really cheap and so far seems to work really well. I'd recommend it!

Do you happen to know ESDDI ND? I found that ICE and this was best rated on amazon.
Thank you.

I'm not familiar with that kind! I haven't used filters very extensively, so I'm definitely no expert. I'd say you'd probably be fine with either option!

Ok thank you so much.

No problem! Good luck!
