The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" Graduated Sunset 1 filter is a fascinating filter. It enhances reality by adding a touch of subtlety or drama to the image. When you can't travel to the southwest for that magnificent sunset, this filter will be very useful. Your friends will think you were on assignment for a travel magazine.

It is sometimes desirable to add colour to part of the photograph. For example, to add an orange/yellow tint to accentuate the effect and impact of the sky. Tiffen Color Graduated filters are half-coloured, half-transparent, with a gradual transition to blend into the scene. Tiffen Graduated Sunset filters are available in grades 1 to 3, with grade 3 having the most pronounced effect.

The Graduated Sunset 1 filter offers a multi-layered sunset effect with a red sky blending to orange then yellow, with the bottom of the filter remaining transparent. Spectacular sunset effects can be created even with the lightest version of this filter.
