Reaching Up

Postby wildernesswanderer » Tue 06 Nov, 2012 8:30 am

Went for our first overnight hike with my wife this weekend and what was supposed to be a simple hike over the Bogong Plains area had us hiking out in very strong winds, she almost went over in the winds they were that strong, But strong winds give great cloud movement and I shot this during the first night. The movement in the clouds is bought around by using a very long exposure and this was about 4 minutes. To get that I use a 10 stop Neutral Density filter by B+W
