Long Exposure photography with the GOBE 10 stop ND Filter

I really, really enjoy using this GOBE 10 Stop ND filter.  The above shots are ISO 50, f16, 13" shots of the 5 span bridge in Pakenham, ON and the waterfalls are located in Almonte, ON.  If you asked me to do this 15-20 years ago, I'd tell you it's impossible to shoot a 13" shot in the middle of the day.  But now with the 10 stop ND filter in front of the lens, anything is possible

I hope next year, my fiancee and I could go to Florida and see a SpaceX rocket launch and I could shoot the launch with the ND filter during the day.  This is one of the many reasons why I love photography.  I.T. can suck it.  LOL

Gobe 10 stop ND filter

I’ve been wanting to do some long exposure photography during the day with my Sony a7R Mark II camera for a while now.  I’ve been looking for a neutral density filter that is reasonably priced and does a solid job.  I found the Gobe 10 stop ND filter on Amazon. I bought this filter for $60 Canadian and I am extremely happy with this filter.  It arrived within 4 days and I got to test it this past weekend.  The above shot is shot at ISO 100, f16 and a 6 second exposure.  You read that right.  Six seconds shot at roughly 4:30pm on a really sunny day with some nice clouds in the sky.  The above shot is of Calabogie Lake in Calabogie, Ontario.  There are a few waterfalls in the Ottawa and Ottawa valley that would be nice to photograph during the day and evening.  That will be my goal for this week.
