Hopefully most who have visited my site have also traveled over to the blog site Prosophos. Peter, the man behind Prosophos often times post a series of pictures that tells a story. Please visit his site if you have the opportunity.
Today, I will start a series of pictures taken while on a hike at Saugatuck Sand Dunes park. I never realized that Lake Michigan was that beautiful!

Ready to Awaken
Bridge to Nowhere part 1
Continuing with the theme from a few days ago, here is another picture from Lake Erie (Huntington Park). This picture was again taken using the Lee seven5 filter system. What I like about this system is how compact it is (fits in my pocket) and allows me to shoot at any time (even mid-day). I also like the fact that I can see immediately on the viewfinder what the image looks like. The only other way to make images like this is to shoot HDR and you will not know how it will turn out until after you have layered the different exposures.
This first image was taken with my Leica M typ 240 and the image tomorrow will be from the Leica M Monochrom, taken in the exact side spot with the same filters.

Calm before the Storm
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to use my new Lee seven5 filter set (they were purchased from 2fillter.com. I’ve never used graduate filters before and in the past it was difficult with the M9 because looking through the viewfinder would not help in lining up the graduated filter to where you wanted them. With the M (240) this can easily be accomplished with either the live view of the LCD or EVF. Here is a link to Lee’s website if you are interested in looking at them. Also, I want to give a huge thanks to Byron Beer of Australia who has given me a lot of useful information on how to best utilize these filters.
P.S. In the coming days I hope to post more pictures and give a small review on these filters.
