For this picture I used a neutral density filter. Just because was too lazy to unscrew it from the lens. Eventually i did unscrew the filter to check the difference. And the only difference was in the brightness of the sky, on which that passing white cloud moved around.
I put a macro filter on lens, couldn't work out why not macroing, got fed up, unscrewed it and saw it was a UV filter!! Duhhhh. I must learn how to use my NDs.
@30pics4jackiesdiamond hahahaaaaa!!!! So sh*t (=shot) does happen...
I sort of discovered how the ndf worked. I read but could not figure out. I wanted to capture the movement of some grass in the wind, but longer exposure burned the capture. I was able finally to get that photo, but I forgot to look on big screen if the movement is captured.
In this particular shot it was not needed. It just was there and some lazy (l)ass...
i have a CPL filter in all my cameras. it not only protects the lens, it also reduces the glare, reflections and haze, and most often enhances the colours in your shot. i almost never remove them.
i always like this kind of pov for pretty flowers, especially against a beautiful blue sky. aces!
@summerfield thank you very much.
i have another filter on another lens. I think that is CPL - if that is the polarization filter. And that is quite ok. But this one, the NDF highly darkens photos and slows down the shutter speed. (i hope i got the terms right).
Lovely pic to get pov of petals and sky!
