This was a late game, Nathan, and the filter was installed, so I left it 
on.  In the light at 5pm, at another game, I found that the autoexposure 
algorithm would not get me to f/2, which I wanted to use to throw the 
fence as far out of focus as possible.  There may have been other 
choices but the ND filter was the one I chose.  I also want to try it 
with airplane shots, to get a better blur of the propeller.

Yes, it seems that a nice pair of legs usually doubles the views in my 
gallery.............
