Wilt Reader's Digest Condensed version of War and Peace [POTN Vol 1]  More info | Feb 14, 2006 12:52 | #2 There is no blue sky to deepen, so the only reason to use any filter with studio photography indoors is merely if you had a reflective (and non metallic) surface that you wanted to reduce reflective sheen. Or a closeup filter. Or special effects like star filter. You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost!

(is it orthochromatic, panchromatic or superpanchromatic; quite a difference). Apart from that, I wouldn't use filters. "I think the idea of art kills creativity" - Douglas Adams
