Members SDB777 Posted May 17, 2015 Members Posted May 17, 2015 Washed out at Little Red this morning.....seems thunder and lightning will do that kind of thing. Go figure! So much rain this year.... Any way, had a long trip back to Cabot....figured a road trip to be in order! Another 'pastime for me' is long exposure photography.....as in anything in the 15second plus time frame, preferably 25-30 seconds to keep from going into the 'Bulb settings'. Here's a 30sec exposure: Here's a 25sec exposure: The river was definitely not wadeable for us! Maybe if it ever decides to stop raining everyday around here?

bs1827 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Beautiful shots! I've really fallen in love with long exposure shots in the past year or so. Mind sharing your other settings for these pics?

Mind sharing your other settings for these pics? Sure, love to help. When using these ND filters, I typically choose to shoot Aperture Priority.... The top photo is f/32 - ISO100 The bottom photo is f/25 - ISO100 The filter I use is a 6stop filter at max setting, but it give some really bad vignetting at the corners, so I dial it back a tad. Then I choose an f/stop that will give the longest shutter time without going into the 'BULB' setting. If it is super bright outside, I'll even take multiple 'bracketed photos' and blend them using PhotoMatix Essentials.... Scott (can't wait to shoot the ocean in July) B No high priced fly gear here!
