The Mina Blanca (white mine) trek was the best I've done so far. White mountains over colorful lagoons, ice caves and volcanic earth were just some of the insane sceneries this trek and Bolivia have to offer.
This is one of the scenes I had encountered on the second day of the trek. After a massive snow storm during the night, the peaks were covered with a fresh layer of soft snow, adorning the green lagoon below.

Great job and a supreme effort to capture it.

The photo speaks for itself, I just have a technical question: the upper right corner seems to have a warm color cast. Which filters exactly did you use here (besides the 105mm polarizer)? I'm just about to buy two pairs of Lee GNDs...
Oh, and one more thing: is the polarizer a linear or a circular? Is the circular worth the extra money?

It's the circular polarizer, together with the 0.9 soft grad if I'm not mistaken. The Heliopan CPL is amazing and worth the price in my opinion.

Which Lee GNDs would you suggest for my style? I'm currently using Cokin P filters, as for GNDs the P120 and 121 filters are my most used ones. (GND 0.52 hard and 0.9 hard - see [link]). The 121L (0.3 GND soft) only gets some moderate use, as a companion for the polarizer mostly.
However, I already have a Lee 0.6 GND hard (found it 2nd hand for a relatively good price) and it turned out that Lee uses steeper graduations than what Cokin calls hard. I'm considering now both the 0.45 and 0.9 GND, both hard and soft filters but they cost a fortune...

Oh and one more thing: I've read the Iceland workshop promo on your page, and you suggest a sturdy and heavy tripod. I currently have a Manfrotto 055 X-pro carbon fiber, would that be enough? Or are aluminium tripods preferred in wind? :confused:

You can see my full equipment list on my website, the filters there are the ones I recommend :)
The CF 055 should be fine for Iceland, just make sure you get one that can go low (short middle rod).

The x-pros can get their middle rods placed horizontally at just a few seconds.

I really dislike this method - it destroys your stability. Better get a short rod.
