Sunsets!

I had never thought of using a filter sideways at the same time as a filter straight up and down.

neither had i. very clever.

I've been killing myself for not having enough filters.
I the purist type that wants it mostly done in camera, like your shot.
Filters are so damned expensive, but you know, I'd rather have 2 lenses that can put out some stunning shots than 3 lenses outputting mediocrity.

I think I'm going to switch to the Lee's at some point. The Cokin P size is too small to handhold w/ a wide angle lens and the larger Singh-Rays are too expensive.

Stunning shots Lukas as usual. One day I'm going to have to get some filters

Thanks Phill

If you get rid of your filters, I'll take 'em; I'm a sucker for used gear.

A sunset... looking East...

Yes it did turn violent.

[TheObiJuan]

Oooh, that's intense and ominous, D70Fan.

[D70FAN]

And unfiltered... sometimes nature does a pretty good job.

Filters are not to make scenes into art, but to allow the LIMITED sensor capture all of the light by filtering out strong light in certain parts.
I love the colors AFTER or BEFORE the sun is in play, because no filter is needed since the dynamic range is minimized.

[D70FAN]

Agreed, which is why I appreciate it when nature does the job... I'm still using some of the filters I bought in 197something for the SRT101, and later on the FM (I still can't find it after the move ).

alihan1988 - this is an awesome photo - would be great if you had a link to a full size version.
Meanwhile try to make them a little smaller, for viewing here, then you can use less compression and still meet the file size requirement
