Farewell summer

Now I'm 100 % sure that summer has definitely ended. I'm not happy about it because I love summer, but on other hand the autumn colours are one of the most coolest thing we have in Finland. These two photos were taken at a nature photography course, thanks for everyone who participated. I had really nice feedback about these photos from my teacher, his comment was something like this: "hmmmphmm ... hmmmphmmhnm ... There's nothing that I would change, these are ready to be sold".

Filter try out

Recently I bought ND8 filter. I've never had any sort of filter before, so this was pretty exciting to see how much does the ND8 filter dim the photos. I took this photo around 11pm, the weather was still pretty bright even though the sun had gone to sleep beyond the horizon. I am satisfied with the results, so I will definitely use this filter in the future as well. 30 second exposure makes the surface look pretty smooth, which looks pretty damn cool in my opinion.

EXIF:
Exposure: 30 sec
Aperture: f/11
Iso: 200
Focal lenght: 12mm
