Post your 9 or 10 stop ND photos

I'm in the same boat. I understand.

I waited half the summer for mine. Got it one week ago, and now it's all rain, rain, rain. And if it doesn't rain then it's still dark when I get home from work.

Cover the lens and camera and go out in the rain and get some images and get some images with the rain in it

Really like that shot Kenny! Nice job removing the color cast! Looks like it was taken without any filter which is something a lot of people struggle with and is the reason you see a lot of b+w images with that filter! Well done.

I love mine, used it with my 16-35 a few times for lighting shots during crazy downpours... not a drop on my camera other than on the filter, dry camera/dry lens = happy photographer !!!!

Cheers Corey! I shoot in RAW & haven't had any trouble with color cast because of it.

I have actually had too many nice weather days, some free of clouds - this is why I haven't taken mine out much. I have been waiting for a free day with stormy weather actually!

some absoloutley fab shots in here, i have a Cokin X-Pro holder, 77mm ring, and some NDGrads on order.. hope to be able to contribute soon!

The reflections really add to the shot Ryan. Great capture.

Thanks!! I had to wait a while since there was a duck swimming around and rippling the water.

Hey guys,
There's some amazing shots here, and I want to give this a try. I currently have an ND4 to play around with, but it didn't really darken it enough for longer exposures during the day. But what I really want to try is some portraiture using my 50L and speedlights through modifiers. I want to be able to keep my aperture at f/1.2 to really blur that background out, while keeping the ISO at 100-200 and shutter at 250 or below.

I've done research, but not sure what filter to get.. I was thinking something like ND16, ND32 or ND64..? I don't want it to be too dark to completely darken the background, but not too light causing me not to be able to use my aperture at f/1.2.

This is a great example of that look Im looking for:

So any suggestions of what filter you all would recommend for this look?
Any help would be great! Thank you all!

The example says he used a 6 Stop ND filter.

Great work, everyone..!

I recently bought some ND filters; haven’t had any chance to play with them yet. Looking forward to experiment with ‘em soon.

Would that be too dark though? He did bump the ISO to 200.. I know I said I'd like to keep it from 100-200, but 100 would be better of course. So far I'm thinking ND16 or ND32 (64 might be too dark), and if I need any darker I can stack up the ND4 (Though, I want to avoid the risk of losing more image quality by stacking)..? Sorry, Im new at this, so I appreciate help !
