Alistair Campbell shows how to use a graduated ND filter to smooth out a crashing sea

A lthough it is by no means my speciality, I have always enjoyed shooting landscapes, as it’s a type of photography that gives me a chance to slow everything down and really take in my surroundings. When I used to shoot on a Canon EOS 5D Mk II DSLR, I had a reasonably affordable Samyang MF 14mm F2.8 and a Samyang SFH-14 filter holder. As they tend to be quite expensive, I only had a single filter (a Lee Filters 1.2 ND). Not long after that I switched over to mirrorless, and promised myself that I wouldn’t become overrun with lenses and accessories again. This promise was broken within a year, when I bought a Fujifilm X-T3 and X-T2.
