One of the hobbies that I love doing is photography. While so many people have seen some of my photos and asked why I don't consider selling them, I don't consider myself a professional at all.In most cases what seperate an amateur photographer from a professional one is not just having a “good eye” for framing your shots but familiarity with your equipment - and having the correct camera accessories for the job.And that is where filters come in. As someone who used to spend hours in a dark room (developing pictures) and now spends time with photo editing software, I can tell you that most of the time you are limited to what you can do with a photograph by the the quality of the origininal.If you take any photos of landscapes in particular than you know how it is th look at a sunset ting and wish that it had more color to it, we're a little darker, etc. Well, with these filters you can do just that.If you look at the photos attached to this review you will see that the sun was simply going down without any beautiful sunset to accompany. With my very first attempt to use these filters (which are by far the most complete set in Amazon with almost 25 different filters with cases for them & the hardware to mount them on virtually and DSLR style camera) I simple picked one of the dark filters to darken the view and then experimented with adding different colors to it my themselves as well as in combination with each other.There is definitely a learning curve to using filters and, if they are as new to you as they are to me, I would advise reading up on their use but, as you can see from the final photograph (which was taken on a different night), the use of filters in your photography can turn a view with some potential into something worthy of framing and putting on your wall.At $50 this filter kit costs a bit more than others on the market but, when you purchase it, you will probably never need to purchase another filter again.
