Forum Search for "reflections technique"

To Sue, There isn't a thing you can do about reactolite glasses going dark. As soon as the wearer goes outisde, they will darken a bit. If the pro pictures you looked at made the groom like a gangster - well - that isn't the togs fault!

Maybe get a friend to drive past so you can be sure they won't hit the brakes? Maybe get them to stick their rear fog lights on to boost the light trail deffinition? But yeah, go with all other methods of lengthening exposure before filtration. I don't think a grad filter would help if you go with the same composition as it'll darken the top part of the car. Also, be wary of a polarizer remo...

Michael: You're probably familiar with Scott Kelby's book "The Photoshop Book for Digital Photographers. (If you're not I highly recommend it) He has a suggested method for removing colour casts....

Well I am back from the trip, unfortunately couldn`t be at the centre at dusk! Managed to maybe get 2 or 3 shots that were somewhat respectable. That was very very hard in the dark. I have uploaded 1 to my gallery. Brilliant experience at the Oceanografic centre in Valencia. Stu

Started with coffee - lots of - then just had water at rehearsal usually have beer but had the car :(

But then what do I know.... You have an opinion just like everyone else. For analysing images, it doesn't matter that you don't know how to use GNDs.

Many thanks for replies... just one thing - "As a rule use a circular filter if you have an autofocus camera or a manual focus model with a spot meter such as the Canon T90." from the guide on this site if using a manual focus canon T70 or Nikon FM2 (M/F also), can i use a circular OR a linear? are there any further disadvantages to each type? Thanks! a very happy christmas t...
