Beautiful image, was this without the use of a graduated filter as I heard that Portra 400 has wide exposure lattitude?

Wow, wonderful photo AbsolutelyN! The sense of light is just fantastic. Curious, also, about how it was handled. I'd like to try pushing Portra 400 like that.
Thanks. I used a polariser to slow the shutter to around a 1/4 second to capture the movement in the foreground, it may also have had a centre filter. The image is unfiltered regarding graduated filters. I'd say Portra has 16 to 18 stops of latitude based on my own basic tests with 35mm film. It can get grainy in the over exposed areas so use of a 1 stop grad can help.

One more, same moorland location. Also taken on Portra 400NC but converted to b/w, 47mm XL.
One of my best E6 shots on 4x5 I think...
Nikkor 90mm, Velvia 50
