I posted this one in a thread for the 10-22mm EF-S lens as well, but I felt it merited a showing in this thread too as I am very pleased with how f/3983 came out in the end. :) f/11 Camera setting + 17 stops of filters. :)

Not that is actually matters, but I can't help but be "that guy"...

17 stops down from f/11 (sqrt(2)^7) would be f/4096 (sqrt(2)^24)

Ahhh... I think found the error. Did you use "11" for f/11 when it's actually ~11.3137 (sqrt(2)^7), and calculate from there?
Something along the lines of:
sqrt(2)^(log(11)/log(sqrt(2)+17) =~ 3982.4253
That's as close as I could get to your answer with plausible mistakes/rounding/whatever.

ISO 1600, f5.6, 1/20, 5D Mark III, 24mm on the 24-70 2.8L II

The start to our dreary July 4, 2013. The sun come up over this bay and while I knew we were going to have crummy weather today, I was hoping for some breaks in the clouds to get some interplay of light and clouds/shadows in the sky line. But this was just a couple of minutes before official sunrise and the light show I was hoping for didn't appear.

It was raining - not pouring hard but hard enough I didn't want to get out in it with my gear. I was fortunate enough that there is a covered pavilion directly to my back. So I stood under cover to plan the shot and wait for daylight, then threw a plastic trash bag over my head and tripod-mounted camera, jumped out to get the shot, then retreated back under cover.
