Nothing like getting back from Kauai and having a delivery from @FarmerTy the next morning! Thanks again sir! I will be back for more... Sorry for the dirty glass and cell phone pictures, I was gone for a week. Other than dirty glass everything looks better than I left it. Go figure.

It was a close call but the Mardi Gras saves the day. Disaster averted.

I was literally about to post some softie as the 3rd pic but then started getting the sweats and couldn’t figure out why. Once I switched it to an acro pic, the sweating stopped. Now I know why.

These were all shot with just actinics. Sadly, doesn’t have the same effect as when you grab your cell phone and throw on an orange filter. The camera is able to filter a majority of the blues that it doesn’t even look like an actinic shot so none of that fake pop you get with those shots. :rolleyes:

I’ll bring you a diy brown clip on filter
They don’t add any “fake pop”

I used a brown filter for my old Nikon rig since it couldn’t do custom white balance. It was right on point with what I saw in person.

I meant all those Facebook/vendor actinic shots when they use cellphones with an orange filter and it saturates the whole pic and overdoes reds, oranges, yellows, etc.

Perfect example… iPhone with orange filter of Acrolandia.
