Slowing down the shutter

Per my previous post, here's a bit more on slowing down the shutter speed. The first image is without filters and shot at about 1/15. The second image used a 3-stop neutral density filter and a circular polarizer to obtain a 4-second exposure.



As you can see from the images, the filters are nice additions for shots like these, allowing you to obtain that creamy effect on the water. Here is one at 13 seconds; the water looks almost surreal:




And perhaps my favorite shot of the day is this one. It's only a 5-second exposure, but that's enough to get a nice effect with the water.
