Just a quick post for today. This is one of the jetties along Plum Island in Newburyport, MA. I’ve posted shots of these rocks in the past, but thought I’d try a B&W long exposure for this one. On cloudy or overcast days here, I almost always go in thinking about how an image will look in B&W, and then shoot and process accordingly.
Beautiful!!!
Also curious as to what type of neutral density filters you use.
I mostly use the B+W 10 Stop ND filter which works like a dream. I sometimes use a polarizer instead when there’s less light and I don’t need the 10 stops.
Thanks – I’ve been in the market but can’t seem to push myself to make a decision. It’s good to hear what others are using.
Thanks Maya.
Great shot! The black and white processing works wonders for the image.
I usually do the same thing when I’m out on a dreary day. To me there is no point processing a photo in color if there isn’t much to show.
Thanks for the comments, and I completely agree.
I love long exp black and white shots! Great work Steven!
Thank you Rich.
The long exposure and the monochrome treatment work perfectly here, Steven.
Thanks Mark.
Gorgeous Steven!
Thanks Edith!
