River of Dreams

Tellico River | Tellico, TN

 

 

The wife and I finally had a weekend to ourselves while the toddlers went to the grandparents. Yeah! We took a 189 mile round trip yesterday visiting the Foothills Parkway, Cherohala Skyway, Tellico, TN and Bald River Falls. What a great day!

 

Since I've had the Zeiss 21mm Distagon I have been wanting to play with some long exposures. I purchased a B+W110 10 -stop filter last week to use on yesterday's adventure. Really happy with the filter / lens combination and results.

 

Since the Zeiss is manual focus only, setting up the shot is not that difficult. You have to get your focus BEFORE putting on the B+W 110 because it blocks so much light. Once you have focus just screw on the filter and fire away. If you use a AF lens just get focus then switch it to manual and you're set.

 

Camera Setup:

Nikon D700 | Zeiss 21mm | 46s @ ƒ/13 | ISO 200 | Bulb | Manual | Tripod & Cable Release | B+W ND110

 

Thank you for viewing.
