Old Erie Canal State Park

I went exploring again the other day during lunch. I could not resist the beautiful blue skies and warming temps. I wanted to work my way down along the Old Erie Canal State Park trail to see what I could find. Looking via Google maps there were numerous places that held potential. Unfortunately there was construction at the parking area closest to the canal lock structures I really wanted to photograph so I ‘settled’ on the park at Cedar Bay.

I also was looking to play with a new filter system I received this week. I finally broke down and purchased a filter holder and a set of neutral density filters, a graduated ND filter and a circular polarizer filter that all work together. I like the filters by Vü Filters and their filter holder/system would work with my Olympus lenses.  The system was also a little less expensive than either the Lee or Cokin version. So far I have been happy with the purchase.
