Forced myself out on a much needed trip back to Portland with my mate *Orca76. we've both been really slack this year photography wise and this was out first trip out in about 5 months I think.

Not the greatest shot - high wind was causing major tripod instability, novice tourist photographers with absolutly no decency, common sense, sense of courtesy or photographic etiquette deliberatly getting in my frame to take a lousy 5000 shots of the sun going down behind clouds.

Was so close to pushing them off the edge it was unbelievable. If they had been in position first - fine - but the fact we had staked our compositions out a good 1.5 hours before hand... boils the blood.

Do you put any filter on your lens to do these kinds of shots? I've been trying to find some kind of dark filter, but as I'm in Greece I've had no luck so far in the shops here. And for the record they are ((insert major expletive here)) expensive!

I use Lee ND grad filters for balancing the sky and also a standard ND (2.75 stop) to extend the exposures slightly. This was taken after the sun had just gone past the horizon so slow shutter speed anyway. I also have a Hoya 10x ND but never use it. Its stupidly long exposures with that thing and creates too much 'artistic' effect.
