Optical Polarisation

Post by Lyrt »

I just got my polarising filters. I don’t use them to get more contrasted skies, I mainly use them to get rid of the reflections of light. Example:


Without polariser:

Of course, sometimes you want to keep some of the reflections:

That post was short and concise. Now you know the advantages of polarising filters and why some fishermen use them. :o

Very nice. And you are so right - fishing has never been the same ever since I got polarizers for my Nikon lens. It's like x-ray vision for the water.
