Did you ever come across a beautiful landscape with big billowing, puffy white clouds on the horizon? You try to capture the moment by taking a photo. However, when you view the photo, either the clouds are completely washed out — white with no detail — or the landscape itself is dark, with no color.

By decreasing the exposure, say 2 stops, the wonderousness of the clouds emerges, but the landscape darkens and loses form. By increasing the exposure, the landscape materializes, but the clouds wash out.

The graduated neutral density filter is designed to fix the problem. The filter is square and slides up or down in its bracket. The filter itself is dark on top and clear on the bottom. The idea is to place the bifurcation line of the filter on the horizon, thereby darkening the clouds and lightening the landscape. A 2-stop filter, i.e. ND4 0.6, will usually do the trick. At times however a 1-stop or 3-stop might be preferable.

The result is a picture with beautifully detailed clouds and a perfectly exposed landscape.
