Clouds Closing In

With clouds moving in at sunset I thought I'd try again using long exposure to capture some movement. When I got set up I decided I liked the ripples and took a few shots without the ND filter. I did however have a grad in place which caused quite a few issues - colour cast and overly dark sky. Maybe because I had it in the 2nd slot or from shooting into the sun. I only noticed the birds high in the sky later on the computer.

By the time I got ready to take a long exposure, the clouds had snuffed out the sun. I did get some wider shots with cloud movement, but I preferred the cloud reflections in the extra: Gone.
