Hello,

Here is my first play with the Lee filters. I was wondering what you people think about it?

    Nice. I would have never thought to use a long exposure for this but it does make for a great transformation of the smoke.
    I do wish there was less foreground and more sky/smoke visible. I would also suggest cloning out the crane to take away the one (minor) distraction.
    Nice job and get ready for a lot of fun with that filter!

    But I like that crane. It brings something to the photo heheh. But yes, I know what you mean. That was all from the smoke - it was vapour and it was disappearing straight away.

    Nice photo, clone a bit off the bottom.
    Cool effect with the smoke.

    Very nicely done. Love the effect. Agree with above re cropping a little off the bottom.

    Check the link below my image. It is a link to my gallery - there is a second version with a tighter cropping. Thank you for the comment and advice.
