“Erosion Control”
Wednesday, July 21, 2010
10 sec, f/11 iso 100
Canon 5D Mark II, 16-35mm f/2.8L II @ 30mm
w/ 3 stop reverse graduated neutral density
I promised myself I was staying in on Tuesday night to do some office work… a storm came through in the early evening and it looked like there was some clearing to the west. Out I went!
I’m really battling some demons with my filter setup. I’m having a lot of trouble with infrared radiation sensitivity with my 5D Mark II and Singh Ray filters when shooting into the sunset like this with heavy filtration. About 15 minutes before the shot above, I was dealing with an extreme “muddy” color cast. This is mostly correctable in post, but really defeats the purpose of using graduated neutral density filters. Very frustrating.
