It's been a couple days since my last post. I had my external hard disk fail due to a controller issue and I couldn't access any of the images. It's all fixed now! This is one of my favorite images, I love the colors and the way the composition came together. It's intesting, for the longest time I had thought I had taken this on a Nikon N-80 using Velvia. When I pulled the image up today I was shocked, it was actually a Nikon D100 image taken with my ultra-cheap Sigma 70-300 lens. I think there was a polarizer and a Tiffen Enhancing Filter on at the time, not sure though. I say that because in my camera bag I usually leave those two on that lens all the time. This was taken along the road in Arches National Park, Utah. Depending upon atmospheric conditions this purple light appears just after the sun has set. The specifics of the image are as follows: 1/60th, F/4.2, 112 MM, 200ISO to RAW. As I was typing this it reminded me that I don't have any filters for my new lenses. I recently replaced all my lenses with Sigma EX 12-24, 24-70 F/2.8, an 70-200 F/2.8. Everything is like 86MM, so I have to get a polarizer that size and an enhancing filter. Those are really the only two filters I use. I'm getting ready to get a new camera. Looking at the Nikon D2X, but also seriously considering the Kodak 14 SLR/n. Any thoughts?
