@Vieri viewing your web page just now, and unfortunately your workshops appear to be out of my reach. From the looks of it you already have a busy schedule, but have you ever considered recording a video teaching series on the subjects you cover in your workshops?

@smoke665 Thank you for your interest in working together, that is much appreciated. About videos, I have been thinking about that but so far I have discarded the idea. Reason is, while I think that i.e. video tutorials on Photoshop and such are great, I also really think that landscape photography is best taught on the field - there is only so much that can be done on video, and I'd almost feel I'd cheat people out of their money if I did that. This, of course, with all my respect to those who do it: if they could find a way to effectively teach landscape photography on video, more power to them

Hi Vieri,

Beautiful image, looks like an amazing place. Sorry this might be a little off topic, I just wanted to ask what ND filters you use? I am researching them and was wondering if you felt it was better to get large circular ones and a step up ring or a bracket for rectangular ones.

Thanks,

Patrick

Hello Patrick,

thank you for your comment, glad you enjoyed the photo - yes, the Dolomites are truly impressive mountains!

About your question, I am using square / rectangular filters, with a filter holder which I move from lens to lens and a holder adapter ring fitted on each lens I own so that I don't lose time screwing and unscrewing the ring when I change lens

For me, using square filters with a holder just makes sense: round filters won't allow me to use Grad ND (round Grad do exist, but obviously one cannot adjust them as well as rectangular ones), round filters need to be screwed and unscrewed from the lens every time you need to change lens, or anytime you need to "see" properly through the viewfinder (i.e., adjusting composition, focussing, and so on), stacking more than one round filter might introduce vignetting (especially on wide and ultra-wide lenses), and so on.

Vieri, very nice image. I particularly like the effect that the clouds bring to the image.

Nice long expo, at first the foreground seemed a little "meh" and flat but it does make the eye follow up to the chimneys..

That's exactly what it's there for Sometimes, you gotta put whatever you've got to a good use: even if something doesn't look amazing "per se", it might have a place as an element of a larger picture (pun intended!).
