Just a few shots taken on sunset with ND filters and a little magic of LR.
Foggy day over the beach
Just bought new ND filters and played with them:)
Added drama Ancel Adams preset
Infrared
My first infrared photo. Tested my new IR filter from Hoya
Sunset over the ocean
This is a first time I've used my new Solid & Graduated Neutral Density 7 Filter Kit with Adapter Rings.
Sunset over the Atlantic ocean. It was a quiet beautiful evening on the Atlantic seaside on November 6, 2016.
I wanted to take a few pictures of the sunset over the Atlantic and to play with my gradient filters.
How do I develop my photos
Post Processing with Sleeklens.com
Last week I've found a web site sleeklens.com that creates workflows (presets and brushes) for any type of photography - wedding, landscape, portrait, architecture, black and white, etc...
You might have seen a lot of presets on the Internet as well Adobe Lightroom own presets. In most of the cases after you applied them you need to adjust settings to achieve the result you want.
From my experience I've learnt do not expect a lot from the presets. But sleeklens landscape presets have prove that I was wrong.
This is a panorama created in Lightroom, unprocessed, taken in RAW.
Now let's get started.
Step 1 - All in One - Warm Shadows
Step 2 - Preset Base - Auto Tone Color
Step 3 - Brush Light Darken applied to darken a pavement to direct a view toward the waterfall
Step 4 - Preset Reduce Yellow - because I was using ND filter some yellow color comes up that needs to be removed to make the photo more realistic.
Step 5 - Brush Color - Cooler - let's add some blue color to the waterfall
And 2 final steps...
Step 6 Preset - Vignette Medium Black
And the final step 7 - Brush Strokes - Light Darken to remove some overexposed spots
Done...
From this -
To this -
In 7 steps.
Sunsets
Sunset - the most beautiful event that mother nature has created. These golden hours are essential for any photographer.
Sunsets over the ocean - yet another gift form the Nature.
Sunset over the ocean
Sunset over the Battery park, NY.
It was very rainy day of July, 16, 2016. We decided to walk to Manhattan, maybe take a ferry to the Exchange Place, NJ to take few black and white pictures of the NY Downtown. I like bad weather days because they add more drama to the composition.
So we were walking down the Battery park and to our surprise rain has stopped and this beautiful sunset has changed our plan.
Enjoy.

Clouds are unpredictable, sometimes we can see them as a horse or a bird or anything that can be in our imagination.
