"Focus on Singh-Ray Filters" celebrates 5 years

In October of 2006, we launched "Focus on Singh-Ray Filters" to showcase images made by real photographers using our filters to serve their real-world needs. These photographers have provided a rich source of information, examples, tips, and ideas for using Singh-Ray Filters to get more of what you're shooting for. We're pleased to say our blog is still going strong, having presented over 450 stories by more than 130 contributors, ranging from ambitious amateurs to the very best professional outdoor photographers. Their stories have featured locations from across the United States and Canada, as well as around the world such as Australia, China, Patagonia, Iceland, and many others. Over 1,000 instructive and inspirational photographs have appeared here over the past five years, each one geared towards demonstrating the importance of getting the image right "in camera" and in the field to the greatest possible extent.

This blog has grown into one of the most helpful resources for information on using photographic filters to be found anywhere. The contents are fully searchable via the search function in the upper left corner of every page, and each entry is labeled by photographer, and filters used -- these can be accessed by browsing the list in the right-hand column. So, if you have questions about using filters, or are looking for ideas and inspiration, we hope that you'll take time to explore our "back issues."

To commemorate our 5th Anniversary, we will be revisiting several stories that we feel would be most valuable to those who are new to choosing and using filters.

We would like to thank all of our contributing photographers for their impressive photos and excellent articles, with special recognition to Steve Kossack, Darwin Wiggett, Adam Barker, Ethan Meleg, Ernesto Santos, John Cornforth, Daryl Benson, Joel Addams, Joe Rossbach, Kevin McNeal, Cole Thompson, and Tony Sweet -- they have each contributed 10 or more stories over the past five years.

Most of all, we would like to thank our readers and customers for making this blog possible, and for continuing to support Singh-Ray Filters. We treasure your trust in our products, and want to assure you that we are continuing to fine tune their performance. Join us as we continue traveling the road ahead.
