What is a Didymium Filter?

A Didymium Filter is a specialized optical filter crafted from glass containing the rare earth elements praseodymium and neodymium. These elements give the filter its unique properties, allowing it to selectively absorb specific wavelengths of light. This selective absorption is particularly effective in the yellow-green and orange-red regions of the spectrum, making the Didymium Filter invaluable for enhancing color balance and reducing light pollution in photographs.
