Lovely overcast day on the promenade...

50mm at f/5.6 the first at 1/500 second and the second at 2 seconds using a 3.0 ND filter...
plus a final look back.

This was essentially an exposure test series using the guideline suggested by the filter maker.

Take away: consider +1/3 or +1/2 step compensation when using the Big Stopper.

Thanks for looking,
Casey

for the second image as there are less people obscuring the architecture which I feel is the point of the image. Cheers, Filip

People move quickly... think what 4 or 8 seconds would have brought... note to self... try a shot at f/8 or f/11 ; )

The weather yesterday was rubbish! Here’s hoping it eases up for the week.

There might be time for a beer or coffee... Spring weather can be like this... should be a sunny weekend.

I was there for a work trip and schedule was utterly packed. Would love to take you up on that offer next time!

safe travels.

Reminds me of our enjoyable stay there on our last trip.It was like going back to another era.

I did take two or three shots with the 28... all are scanned, but I haven't checked each frame yet... It's a great building / location. My first time to photograph the exterior since the renovation.

At least one of them might be taken with an AI'ed Nikkor-H 2.8cm f/3.5
For the most part I don't take field notes.

Edit: let's assume the first photo is was made with the 28 due to the blocking by the filter holder in the corners...

 

if you do have for comparison same shot as #1 without any ND nor stopper.

Photos in the original post...

01) Neopan 100, f/5.6 at 1/500 second (protect filter only)
02) Neopan 100, f/5.6 at 2 seconds (ND3.0 filter and protect)

Regarding my reply, "Here's a couple of more for fernando...", below is a similar angle to the first photo in the reply without ND filter.  The filter holder was still on the lens (minus the filter) so we got the same blockage.  Definitely the 28mm lens...
