Really appreciated this succinct yet informative tutorial, Jay. I didn't read up on the filter before using it so I didn't realize that the place I first clicked on the photo was the start line for the effect. Very helpful.
Graduated filters (grads) come to the rescue of landscape images spoiled by bland, washed out skies. If you live in a climate where these skies are the norm, then these are the landscape photographer's best friend. Outdoor professional photographers have discovered the importance of using graduated neutral density filters for landscapes to capture greater detail whenever a scene combines a bright sky area and a somewhat darker foreground.
Thank you
This is an excellent article - I wasn't even aware that this existed! Thanks/Peter
