I believe that should work for you okay. I find that it's just a starting off point anyway. After a few test runs, I think you will find the right combination. I usually shoot a lot of my shots using the chart and some a little shorter and longer than the actual chart shows. One thing you will find with a lot of these ND filters is that you'll have to do some white balance adjustments in post processing. They usually leave a distinct pinkish cast, but that's the nature of the beast.

Welcome corporallouis! Your images are making quite an impression
We love to share and learn around here so it looks like you'll fit in just fine.

Thanks for sharing your ND info. I used to walk around with a dark red filter when I shot B/W film so your dark and poppy skies are bringing back memories.....

Feel free to mention your flickr page or add it in your sig.

Thank you for such a warm reception. I belong to quite a number of photography forums on the net. I don't normally post too much on most of them. They're like sharks in a feeding frenzy. They'll chew you up and spit you out just for the fun. Constructive criticism is one thing, but on some of the forums it's downright nasty. I "think" most of us are hobby shooters and not into serious commercial work and as such like to get a pat on the back for showing photos of our little part of the world. I have my share of scars on my back from some folks on the forums. All you get is "if you did this and that rock wasn't there yadda yadda yadda." I would be physically impossible to get a photo without reconstructing the landscape for some of these folks. I like it simple. If someone likes my photo that's good. If not, be gentle and tell me why not without tearing flesh off or just don't comment and move along. Civility is sure lacking in places on here for sure. I get a sense that's not the case here, and I hope we can all play nicely together . . and sorry for the semi-rant
