Haha. Yeah. Theres stronger filters, 4.0, but I really like long exposure photography. It's an excellent filter. Such a fascinating way to expose time. And excuse me, it was a B+W Filter, not a Hoya filter.
Really lovely shot here. The lightness of the picture is really stunning and it sounds a bit silly to say that a piece of wood can look at peace, but the picture gives me this really peaceful sleepy feel (hopefully that makes sense)
I used a Hoya ND3.0 (1000X) filter. It was a 1 minute exposure. That was the only way to show the steadfast wood.
