Last October I was in Ft. Bragg, CA, a couple hours north of SF for a few days. I was able to take these before losing my 50d and Tokina 11-16 to a rogue wave. Rule number one while at the beach... do not turn your back on the ocean.

These were all taken with a 3 stop ND gradient filter to bring out the sky.

This first picture was taking in Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains a few weeks ago. It is one of the first close ups I have taken with my Nikon D51 using the 18-55 mm lens.

This was also taken while on the same trip and it is a place called Mingo Falls.

They really make a difference. You can adjust the sky with post processing, but if it's blown out when it comes out of the camera, not much you can do.

I recommend the square/rectangular ones instead of the screw in filters. A lot more flexible and similar in price. Lots of really inexpensive ones on Ebay or check out 2filters.com -- good people and good stuff. If you shoot super wide angle, like 10mm or 11mm on a crop camera, you need a big filter (100mm instead of 85mm) or it will encroach on the frame.
