Lorell,
Another tool for your bag of tricks. I just woke up from a dream where I was in the darkroom colour dodging and burning an image. That was another lifetime. It is hard to imagine how much has changed in image making in one short lifetime. We used to have to do more of it in camera, but if Ansel Adams were alive today I would bet he would use any device available to make an image. So go girl. Soon you won't even have to think about it. It will come as naturally as breathing. And if you choose to take make a duplicate layer to change colour balance or to further soften part of an image you will be able to do that too. Don't take this the wrong way. Your intentional longer exposure to blur the ocean works well and improves the image. Like cooking one should always season to taste. BTW using 2 polarizers one can get even more density adjustment. They have to be of a good quality though or they won't be Neutral Density
Rich,
Like Dave said no torpedo bunks for me either! I wonder if you dream about those experiences?
