It's pretty much a filter where the top half cuts down (in third stops - .3, - .6, -.9, - 1.2, etc.) the exposure, and the bottom half is normal. So, it'll tone down the bright sky while keeping the foreground intact. I keep meaning to get a GND set. The cheapest way seems to be using Cokin P holders and buy square filters. Holder screws onto lens, holds big squares of glass in front of the lens. Pretty simple, cheap, and totally modular.

Like the square omnibounce ones? Good exposure on the shots. There was one where the guy was in a diagonal straight legs pose on his head. If you cropped it a bit, it would be SICK.

Obviously I know none of these shots belong in here with such good skills shown by everyone else, but this is the first time in probably a year that I have taken my camera off Auto. Always looking for suggestions as I am a super newb, but you have to keep it dumbed down

I LOVE my circular polarizer. Such difference when shooting. Here is a fun example of what a polarizer can also do:

Without Polarizer on:


With Polarizer on:



I would LOVE Galen Rowell's polarizer setup, but that is a lot of monies.
