NATURAL FILTERS

[Shirley Jess]

This would be any amazing capture that was the outcome of mother natures natural filters (no lense attachments). Examples would be... smoke, dust, fog.

SMOKE AND DUST
Smoke from a near by fire and the dust from the adjacent road created this natural filter.


SMOKEY MOUNTAINS
Smoke from a near by fire created this natural filter

SILENT WINTER
Fog was the natural filter in this one.

CRIMSON AND GRAY
Smoke made the skies and sunset a stunning crimson color.

I took this one while driving through the Columbia Gorge.

[Shirley Jess]

@anndee Stunning, I love how the sun rays are barely peeking through the fog!

[Jason Daniels]

During the dry season, the Papua New Guinean will set fire to everything. This was shot one smoky evening.

[Jason Daniels]

Smoke from a Volcano can achieve similar results.

This shot was while sitting in a leaky boat in very heavy rain with underwater camera, so yeah filtered through raindrops....

Early morning (well, just past midnight early!) mist rising off the water.

[Shirley Jess]

@bobfoto Love all three, the rain shot has stunning colors.

[Shirley Jess]

@dmortega Lots of really cool fog shots. Was the moon a fog shot as well? It turned out pretty clear.

A foggy day in London town

[ShanneW]

Lots of wonderful shots, for me today's shot from the weekend, with dust from combine harvesting

[Stacey]

This school bus is englufed by fog created from the spring thaw

[Stacey]

@john244 That is one amazing shot!

[Shirley Jess]

@wrighty That is so cool, it looks like a miniature town and bridge and boats.. Love it!

[Shirley Jess]

@shannew That is so cool! I LOVE THE PASTELS in the background, caused by the dust and wheat chaff. We have a lot of this going on around area right now as well!

[Dorrena Ortega]

@shirljess --- The moon shot is shrouded by clouds that were moving across the sky.

This was taken in a very clear sky.

I suppose a window isn't REALLY a natural filter :-)


Not even if it has rain on it?


But smoke from fires for sure

[Shirley Jess]

@dmortega Wow, your second one really is much clearer, now I see the clouds, I just wasn't sure if it was fog or dust or what the natural filter was on the first one. Both are awesome!

[Dana]

Fog:

[Shirley Jess]

@m9f9l oh yes, for sure rain, and I jsut love the vivid colors from the smoke filter.

[Shirley Jess]

@danacarruthers Very cool textures and I love the little pop of red.

[Julie]

[m9f9l]

@shirljess Probably from the same fires that filtered your shot :-)

[Dorrena Ortega]

The dust out here tends to get kicked up quite a bit thanks to the high winds over the plains. As such, we'll get some amazing colors in the sky at sun up and sundown...

I had to add this one from tonight of another smoke filled sky, this time too close to home.
