Using Photography Filters
Neutral density (ND) filters are a type of filter used in photography to reduce the amount of light that passes through the lens. By using an ND filter, photographers can reduce the intensity of light without changing its color or hue. This allows them to achieve longer exposure times and create images with different effects. ND Filters are the best way to creating long exposures which blur motion. That motion may be clouds streaking across the sky or an incoming tide washing over rocks or a pier. They can also be used to still rippling water and smooth out reflections. They are available in a variety of densities and sizes, making them an essential tool for any photographer.
Creative Long exposure
Ethereal images made easy
Using a Kase circular magnetic 6 stop neutral density filter. This exposure time was extended to 90 seconds. This allowed the outgoing tide and clouds in the sky to be totally smoothed creating a relaxing and ethereal image.

Fine Art Photography
Capturing small sections of the scene
While general landscape photography focusses more on light falling across the land or large vistas. Fine art photography is more honed in on details. This is of course merely a matter of opinion, but my approach is to turn my camera away from the large vistas and look closely at what lies in front of me. The smallest of things can create beautiful photographs.
