Well, I didn't have filter and by the time I thought about doing this there was not t filter to be found anywhere on the net so I had improvise. Got me some good old fashion Black & White film and exposed it to light for a few minutes. Then took it back in the store for them to develop it. I used a piece os that film housed in my filter box of my 300 f/2.8 lens. Worked much better then I thought it would to tell the truth.

Thanks for looking,
Tom
