Great stuff..
A big problem i am having at the moment is the glare in the sky and over blown highlights that I cant recover. Even HDR doesnt do a good job dealing with that.

looking forward to getting a good ND Grad set for dealing with that.

Can you use CPL with ND Grad holders etc?

Im not one for megapixels etc so no worries on that front.

What are the benefits in using a CPL?

Last week I ended up in Stormont Buildings Belfast to receive my award for first prize in an amateur photography competition. Suffice to say I was and still am over the moon.
My first love is wildlife but I cant help reaching for my 18-55 kit lens to capture the odd land and seascape.

I have asked this question before or something like it but whats the next step forward in this type of photography?

I use a tripod with a gammy leg. (an old Velbon that needs its legs slapped back in again)
I use the kit lens 18-55 which proves good on all ventures until you have to shoot wide open etc
And I tend to shoot HDR because I dont have ND or GND's.

Whats a guy to do?

any thoughts guys?

Cheers

Alistair
