Re: [Digital BW] Landscape bright background

2006-10-30 by Charles Carstensen

Look at Lee Filters, using various combinations of neutral density  
graduated filters to get the sky above horizon cut down to allow  
proper foreground exposure. Lee system is terrific, although a little  
on the expensive side. They have everything you need for landscape  
photography.
