I bought variable neutral-density (ND) filters for two of my camera lenses. Specifically, the Urth Variable ND2–400 Filter in two different sizes.
Sadly, I haven’t had the chance to try these out on a proper photo walk yet. All I’ve managed to do so far is test them on a short walk after work.
Still, aside from the tiny bit of vignetting at the highest density level, the results I got with them were great, and I managed to take two really nice, richly-coloured photos of objects on a bright, sunny day.
Hopefully I’ll get the chance to play around with these filters properly over the coming weeks.
So much depends…

A very Australian problem
Close-up photo of a mailbox at the front of a residential garden. Stickers affixed to the front of the mailbox indicate that this is house 113. The upper, curved part of the mailbox is where mail carriers (affectionately called posties in Australia) will place newspapers, magazines, and other long or bulky packages. This section of the mailbox has not been used recently because there is a thick spiderweb strung across the back part of it.
