more Photohunter Outing/Events/Workshop click HERE
look for more advices or order for Filters/Tripod for Landscape or etc click HERE
just another sample of Big Stopper use … the use of the ND filters can help to create different effect or mood of our pictures ….
many may ask how we going to use ND filters or Big Stopper as it is almost total dark ..
1. use GND/RGND or shoot like normal but capture the shutterspeed, ISO, F number… e.g below. but make sure set to Manual Focus after the capture or record of the setting
2. use the same ISO, Aperture but then convert the shutter speed base on 10 stops filter exposure table, ‘long time’ (for Iphone user), ND Calc (for Android user)
e.g. ISO100 , F16 , 1/30s before ND1000 , Big Stopper…. will change to
ISO100, F16, 30s
– DO NOT change setting ISO, Aperture
– DO NOT change focus (after the MF)
3. few notes need to be taken
– white balance could be run, you may correct it with white balance tool at Photoshop, Lightroom, DPP … by click white color spot
– the light condition could be change e.g. sunset .. it will change to darker so need to compesate with some add on time … e.g. 30s above I normally add on 10-20% time for sky getting darker
– sturdy tripod need to be use avoid shake …
– long exposure noise need special process to remove (color noise) , if do not know any method turn on long exposure noise reduction

Finally, I make a trip to a beautiful Indonesia again and this round managed to visit East Java which include Papuma and Bromo for seascape and volcano view …
we reach Surabaya which a real busy city , car moving slow …… and we travel ~7-8 hours down south to Tanjung Papuma … spent 2 nights with mix of cloudy and clear days we enjoy the beautiful beach , sunrise, sunset and nightsky … and I am sure will re-visit this place very soon ……….
after 2 nights spending over here , we travel ~3.5 hours to Mount Bromo. another 2 “cold” days we had on the Lava View resort which give us beautiful 2 sunrise, nightsky but no luck for sunset …….. this place like other share a very beautiful volcano … we climb up for 2 viewpoint which I will share the view soon here (by update)…
1. Penanjakan 1 – easy to access but very limit space for photography
2. Penanjakan 2 – nearer to Lava View resort but need ~20-30min moderate hike but plenty of space for shooting .. 😀
*** both view are facing direct south which have sunrise on left ….
– simply another Papuma Beach Milky way .. think everyone come here is easy to get this view
update 2018 May 22
– this is from 2018 May Photohunter to East Java .. some capture as usual at this beautiful place
the sunrise view , and this is captured with Panasonic G9 80 Megapixel High-resolution Mode
– a nearer view with Mavic Air
– beside sunrise , sunset also can have good view here
– nightscape view at Mount Bromo always highlight of the tour

– after sunrise sessions, most the tourist will travel close to Mount Bromo with horse or by walk .. this could be good moment capture some good horse moment
– beside Mount Bromo, as usual we visit this lovely beach call Papuma Beach … sunrise, sunset , slowshutter and nightscape all can be attractive here
