Nikon D800, AF-S Nikkor 50mm F/1.4G, 10 stop ND; shutter release; tripod; Lee stopper app for iPhone

An image whilst experimenting using a 10 stop ND filter. This landscape is one that I have posted images of many time before.
It makes a good subject for this kind of experiment. It was taken at sunset right after the sun dipped below the western horizon.

This shot was an exercise is organizing and using the various tools, settings, set-up and process needed to take the shot and the processing need to render the image.

It was also an exercise in rendering a good exposure in circumstances where the foreground to background contrast and highlights ratio is outside the range of the cameras normal metering capability.

It's a learning process.
