Shooting In To The Sun

Sometimes I shoot directly into the sun for an image. This makes it very difficult to get an image that exposes the sun, sky, and landscape without clipping highlights and shadows.

Image Stacking vs. Long Exposure

Long exposure of Brushy Creek

The last time I was at Brushy Creek park, I wanted to do some long exposures but I didn’t have my ND filter with me. So, I just didn’t get the picture and thought that was that. A few weeks ago, I was watching a YouTube vlog by a photographer I like named Evan Ranft… Read More Image Stacking vs. Long Exposure
