I've got 50 or 60 Cokins of various types...occasionally have a play with the tobacco grads and the warm grads if there's a reasonable sunset around.
The only "fun" one I have...not sure where it came from...is a Speed filter(217). Pop it on for a quick portrait of the cat and it looks like the poor things been eating magic mushrooms.

Hi Bob how are you, i have a hankering for some fun time filters, star effect, multi-coulered, going to get my creative head on, ready for my courses which are coming up this month,
I know it can all be done in DPP or zoombrowser but a natural shot is what i am aiming for, speed filter will watch out for that one,
many thanks Bob and keep well
Regards mark.
with all this stuff and Bo2007's advice 10% equipment 90% creative somthings got to get better.
