Felix Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Had a crack at my first seaside shoot using my new ND400 filter... bit of a steep learning curve! Rest are here please let me know what you all think. Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still_Shorty Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Great shots Felix. Yes there is something amazing about birds in flight & yes price tags of good quality filters...what can I say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Thanks! I just burnt $220 more on some filters... need to sell more fish stuff! Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still_Shorty Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Doesn't take much to throw a couple hundred bucks on filters eh? Just bought a Nature Fader ND & CPL both 77mm for my wide angle lens. Ouch!!! $125 for the Nature ND alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Yeah I just went some 85mm squares and a 72mm CPL... starting to like the idea of filters over PP. Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still_Shorty Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Seems to be the in thing Felix. All trial & error I think. Get to like a particular style & stick with it. Same with choice of lenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still_Shorty Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Particularly like your 1st pic. Looks like it's taken from 10,000ft with a high powered zoom. Very effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadFishFloating Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 These are great! That first one would really make an awesome postcard or callender picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Thanks guys! Had a MASSIVE complement that the first one was Nat Geo worthy! I don't think so, but I like it none the less! Plus it was my first go, so I shouldn't expect too much! Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gollys Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 This forum makes me want to buy a camera soooooooo bad. That first photo is simply stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Get out there and do it! I asked for some critique on a photography website, got some good feedback and someone adjust the colour cast in the first image... great to learn something!
