Well, there is at least one secret weapon. There are several others in my arsenal, but the primary tool used to construct this image is the ND and polarizer filters. For any serious outdoor or landscape photographer, they are an absolute must.
These two images were taken from the same location – both are directly out of camera with no post editing. The difference in the images are remarkable in my mind. When I first started out in photography, no one told me that images weren’t gonna pop right out of the camera. I thought I didn’t have the talent to take a decent image, and the more I worked, the more I learned.
It took me at least 2 years to figure out many of the nasty secrets in photography. Pardon me for sharing them with you.
Happy shooting!
