Lee Big Stopper... and Rain... and Fog... and Wind...

When you said wind I was expecting to see more movement in the branches. How long was the exposure with that filter? (I can't seem to find exif with flickr's new format)

5 seconds. Anything more and I ended up losing a lot of detail in the water.

Like the shot, but just wondering about your choice of settings, surely you could have gotten away with a lower ISO and stopped down some and just done away with the filter? It just seems like needlessly degrading image quality...

In all honesty, I could have. However, I had JUST got the filter in the mail, and wanted to use it. While I probably could have foregone it, I wanted to use it. And really, I've noticed NO degradation in IQ when using the filter. Other than cooling the temp a bit, it has no effect on the image.

Best,

People are always mentioning how filters degrade the iq. I know that if you look at it mathematically that yes, it does but I don't buy cheap filters and like you I don't notice a decreased iq.
 
Lovely shot. Now next time go back and pull out those Pesty branches

I pulled out many of the lower ones. I'll go back on a nice day and shoot again, for sure.

Wow. Gorgeous. This would be up on a canvas on my wall.
 
Wow, I love it. What a great shot, I'd nominate this for POTM but it has already been nominated. Great work :) Keep them coming.
