Muar, also known as Bandar Maharani is a town geopolitically situated in Muar District in the region or area of Muar in northwestern Johor, Malaysia. It is the main and biggest town of the bigger entity region or area of the same name, Muar which is sub-divided into the Muar district and the new Ledang district, which was upgraded into a full fledge district from the Tangkak sub-district earlier.[1] Muar district as the only district covering the whole area formerly borders Malacca in the northern part. Upon the upgrading of Ledang district, the Muar district now covers only the area south of Sungai Muar, whilst the northern area beyond the river is in within Ledang district. However, both divided administrative districts are still collectively and fondly called and referred to as the region or area of Muar as a whole by their residents and outsiders.

it is not easy to tell how filter help us as landscape photographer … normally we face
1. either foreground correct exposure but the sky will be over or sky ok but foreground under
2. when light reach horizontal (sunset/sunrise last momet) … the center park of the light source use to over exposure with highlight blown …
and here is a simple picture show what filters I to get different results
– GND use up to the grass level
– RGND use up to the house
– meter on foreground grass

not easy to find sample regard what this glass about … finally it is on my hand to have a try … a glass to enhance magenta, red, yellow and feel it really good for dawn light …
both picture with
1. Singh-Ray RGND 2 stop
2. AWB
3. both capture within 1 min
4. same iso, aperture … shutter speed had minor different due to additional glass
A. dawn with Singh-Ray RGND 2 stops only
B. dawn with Singh-Ray RGND 2 stops and Lee Filter Glass Enhancer
some may prefer original blue + yellow contrast .. and other may prefer magenta tone …
for me, photography no right and wrong .. just what we want to capture … and we may use it to enhance the magenta/yellow/read tone inside our frame
If you look for Lee Filters/SIngh-Ray stock available list click HERE
or contact ME for pre-book [Enhancer no more in Production due to Material shortage by Lee FIlters]

did a quick compare into single image .. for why we use GND and RGND
left … – no filter while foreground correct expose but the sky will look over
Center – with GND 1.2, the sky will be balance as reduce light go through on the top part but the horizontal level still look over due to the light source from there
right – the filter transit from center to top (darker at center) so managed to block more light at the horizontal level and maintain the details
there is no right and wrong in photography .. but using different filters will give you how your picture look like …..
and if you look for Lee Filter .. Singh-Ray … i may have some stock available
