My 10 stop has been gathering dust for over a year, really must make the effort.

Both crackers!

I usually like Milky Water as much as you enthuse about Selective Colour BP......

'But, that is only Milky Waterfalls or Fast Flowing Waters.....

But here it adds to the scene, an eirie stillness, as if the World has come to a halt......Love 'em.

FUJI.

I have a love hate relation ship with 10 stop shots so I tend to look for and create very smooth and fairly simple images. 

The first one is the shot I had in mind when I set out - the second I took just because I liked the white slash of the surf running through it but its not quite right somehow.

Its basically a very, very dark (neutral density) filter that typically extends your shutter speeds long enough to produce blur.

The first image is an absolute bloody belter (a technical term you may not be familiar with).

The atmosphere, the composition and the processing are just about spot-on.

An excellent piece of work, BP.
