Bloom at night

I was experimenting with vaseline, way strong thoguh ; ///the problem is that its very hard to pat it down without streaking it and getting
traditional flare, and it goes away after like an hour, so weird.. Im probably just going to get a much
lower power pro mist filter from Tiffen... Still ambient and cool looking

Neat experiment David.

Pretty cool Dave! I like these a lot, you should have participated in our Weekend Challenge a few months ago when we did the Vaseline challenge.

You can also use liquid dish soap, I think Jameel suggested that and that worked good too, it dries on the filter after a few minutes.

I did some research and found there's a pearlescent filter that will be the perfect touch, I want to lower contrast and raise the blacks too, so for me the tiffen pearlescent filter is perfect..
