Thanks H for a very beautiful picture and a most informative thread for a newcomer to the DSLR world. I am not familiar with graded ND filters but can see their benefit from this thread. I can also see that there would be times when a mask would work better eg where the subject crosses the horizon. If Cokin filters aren't that great, what brand would people recommend?
I am also very interested to hear how little processing went into this image and find that quite inspiring, especially if this is your rule of thumb Humayun as I am very much a fan of your pictures.
