Nicely done. How did you get such a pure red in the sky? #459631

Thank you for the comments Leanne, Kristen & Steven.

I am glad you asked this question Steven.

I recently purchased Singh-Ray ND 3 stop & Singh-Ray Reverse GND 3 stop filters. I decided to test them out last evening.

I used the reverse GND to reduce the contrast in the horizon and the ND to slow down the water. Individually these filters are neutral. But combining them caused a color shift to more reddish. I was surprised by the color shift. But I liked the final outcome.

Anil: Thanks for the answer. That is surprising. I wonder if it is film dependent or a reciprocity effect (long exposures can shift colors). What film did you use? #459686

Steven,
I used a Canon 10D. So no film.

Here is the sunset using only the Reverse GND and without the ND filter.

Yes, should have noted the camera. Still very interesting. Thanks again for the details. -steve #460929
