Kolob Terrace

[Michael13]

Zion National Park"s Kolob Terrace Road is a very steep climb up from Virgin, Utah to the high country. The scenery is exceptional along the route as long as the weather cooperates. 590nm converted Nikon Z5 image, 10 stop ND filter, 30 second exposure.

Delightful result - I like the cloud motion effect of the ND10 filter and the long exposure.

Super cool and crisp Michael! I like the cloud motion.

The Z5 looks to be doing well for IR, I might have asked this before, but what lens are you using on the Z5?

Thanks Alan. I do seem to be addicted to longer exposures of late ...

I am mostly using my Nikon 24-70 f4s, but also the Nikon 20mm f1.8s, Tamron 70-300, Laowa 85mm macro, and newest lens Viltrox 14mm f4. There is no need to focus calibrate Nikon mirrorless IR conversions to a specific lens - use whatever you want. There still may be some hotspot issues, especially on older lenses and more so when stopped down, but focus calibration is not an issue. I use focus peaking on my manual macro lens and on my old nikkor adapted Ai and AFs lenses, it works well but has taken me a while to get used to.

It's a nice road and takes you to some great places and trailheads. Fortunately not too many people go there.
