Hard Graduated Neutral Density Filters - HGND
Graduated ND filters are used to control the dynamic range within a scene at the time of recording. In a landscape scene, the sky is normally brighter than the foreground, so a GND filter is placed in front of the lens and moved to a position where the bright part of the scene is covered by the GND filter and the margin between sky and foreground is blurred is use of the transition region of the GND filter. The scene is normally metered for the highlight area and shadow area and the difference in stops dictates the strength of the filter used. With modern digital sensors, an S-GND (soft) filter offers the most versatile solution for landscape photographers.
