Michael,

I'm quite sure the "filter" you used is much improved over those that I use
when trying to shoot through airplane windows.  Those usually consist of at
least two highly scratched pieces of plastic.  Talk about loss of contrast!
However, just as in your situation, if I did not press the shutter, I
would not have any image.
