Daft question but why do they all have a purple theme to them? is it the filter?Thanks very much![]()
Tbh I think it's the natural hues at sunrises and sunsets that we get here. Often the colours in the sky's pump out colours ranging from yellows, oranges, greens, blues, purples etc...coupled with being by the seaDaft question but why do they all have a purple theme to them? is it the filter?
When it comes to filters if you want to begin to invest for the long term then the LEE or NISI square ones can't be beat IMO. You buy a holder and then just an adapter to fit whatever lens you want to use it with. Adapters are cheaper in the long wrong as it allows you to not rebuy the expensive bit, the filters and just reuse the same ones with different equipment.
My 2 cents anyway.
Dangerous questionNice one, I was edging that way anyway so I think that's what I will do. Which is the better one to invest in?
Indeed, it isn't fairNot fair, you must get gorgeous sunset evening after evening. 9/10 up here if you head out hoping for a cracking sunset you will be coming home with nothing or sub par images!
I love the comps and colours @Phate - Before you get your grads (which you won't look back from tbh) try multiple exposures to bring out the best in sky and foreground then merge them.
What camera and lens you shooting with?I can only imagine the frustration with the UK and trying astro imaging!![]()
