Great shots everyone. Shame I missed this one, but I was at a chav wedding!!
For £1.30 and a blob of blutac it was fantastic to use. Set up the tripod, set up the camera, expose the shot, add on about 13 stops, stick the filter on then sit down for 30 seconds or so whilst its working.
Then get greeted with this when post-processing:

13 full stops![]()
What is it you were using mate, and where can i get onegreat shot btw
It was a piece of "4 x 3 Replacement Welding Lens - Glass" off an auction site, £1.30 buy price with free postage. Just the right size to stick in front of a 77mm ring or less![]()
EDIT would possibly cut the bottom off it to remove the two distracting objects at the left and right hand corners?

They have been annoying me.
Don't want to crop it at the bottom - it cuts off the flow of the bridge.
Don't want to crop it at the sides - you loose the bridge supports.
But a strong vignette works wonders:

A great day out and big thanks to MB for organising the permit.

I'm liking the shots posted so far, so here goes with a few of mine.
