I really like polarizing filters. They have several uses, but my favorite is for landscapes and other applications where there is a lot of sky. You can really bring out the deep blues and the clouds for dramatic photos. there are limitations, of course, such as having the best results perpendicular to the direction of the Sun and limitations with how wide you can go in terms of field of view, but when it works, it really works well.
This is essentially the same shot where I did not and did use a polarizing filter. The top picture is "okay", but the bottom picture is both more dramatic and separates the plane from the sky much better. The same can be done with landscapes to separate the sky and the land.
December 1993.
Film: Fujichrome Velvia 50ASA..
Camera: Pentax-LX.
Lens: smc Pentax-M 50mm.
Filter: Hoya Polarizer
Exposure: f/11, 1/60sec.
Top: naked sony nex.
Middle: Zeikos polarizer (~$4).
Bottom: Tiffen polarizer (~$20).
Granted was a quick and dirty test but I don't see any noticeable difference between the $4 and $20 CPLs. They both reduce reflections about the same and darken the overall image about the same.
Can someone explain to me why photographers pay $100 or $150 for a B+W brand polarizer? What does it do differently?

Unfortunately missed a few cars driving around the past few days, but this was a nice surprise on Friday and made a decent combo with the weekly 599 over there.

Beautiful swimsuit bikini model goddess on a beautiful December Malibu afternoon! Shot it yesterday. :) Love, love, love the new Sony A7 R!
Was a fun test shoot. Many, many more to come!

Modeling the new hipster "Gold 45 Revolver" Gold'N'Virtue swimsuits with the main equation to Moving Dimensions Theory on the swimsuits: dx4/dt=ic. Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! :) You can read more about my research and Hero's Journey Physics here:
herosjourneyphysics.wordpress.com/ MDT PROOF#2: Einstein (1912 Man. on Rel.) and Minkowski wrote x4=ict. Ergo dx4/dt=ic--the foundational equation of all time and motion which is on all the shirts and swimsuits. Every photon that hits my Nikon D800e's sensor does it by surfing the fourth expanding dimension, which is moving at c relative to the three spatial dimensions, or dx4/dt=ic!
May the Hero's Journey Mythology Goddess inspire you (as they have inspired me!) along your own artistic journey! Love, love, love the 35mm Carl Zeiss Lens on the new Sony A7R! :)

Cokin B-Y polarization filter increases contrast and blue-yellow colours. These alterations are with this amazing camera filter and can’t be done via photoshop or post processing. An example how the filter creates vivid blue coloration of water contrasting with the yellow canoe viewed from below...
Ok, the story. I was out wandering far and wide yesterday (my goal was to burn an entire tank of gas before I came home) and I found this amazing little tattered house in the middle of nowhere. It was abandoned, but oddly enough there was next to no vandalism. I stopped and got out to take some pictures, and when I went inside I found thousands upon thousands of polaroids; tacked to the brightly colored walls, covering the dilapidated wooden floors, filling the bathtubs and sinks. Photos of beautiful places and interesting people. It was one of the most beautiful yet creepy things I have ever seen. Hanging from the walls were half a dozen polaroid cameras, and the cabinets in the kitchen were stacked with polaroid film and batteries. Bizarre no?

The whole day, I was thinking about what to shoot for today, but nothing was coming to mind. Got home from work and saw these sunglasses lying around and wondered if I could do something with it.. At first I thought I would do a SP, but then all you guys saw how scary I look, so scrapped that idea. Didn't want to torture my kids either, so it was down to this.
Would you believe me if I said that this was shot using white back light? And, that I did NOT use Photoshop to reverse/invert the colors or exposure at all... I know the genius photogs out there already know out how this can be achieved... :-)
And of course, I had to do one in b/w as well.. :-) Yes, I did convert that in Photoshop.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
... to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
Near & far - 14 (of 19) - Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II with Lumix G 14mm F2.5 Prime (M43 mount) & Polarizer - Photographer Russell McNeil PhD (Physics) lives on Vancouver Island, where he works as a writer.
My photo walk of July 8, 2023 in Lyon, France by a stunning summer day with my Nikon F SLR camera (circa 1964-1965). The guiding idea was to use a circular polarizing filter with a color negative film for all outdoor pictures. I did my photo session between about 2pm to 5pm. The temperature reached 33°C in the afternoon and the atmosphere was very clear and dry.
My 60's Nikon F was equipped with its normal lens Nippon Kogaku Nikkor-S 1:2 f=5cm with is lighter than my later period Nikkor-S version 1:1.4 f=50mm from the early 70's. The lens was equipped with the original Nikkor F metal shade hood specific of the 1:2 f=5cm. For all outdoor views the lens was also equipped with a Hakura 52mm polarizing filter oriented for the best color saturation.
I used a Fujifilm 200 36-exposure negative color film (this film is made in the USA and given with the same technical characteristics of Kodak Gold 200). It was exposed for 50 ISO to compensate the polarizing filter absorption, using an Autometer III Minolta lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas.

After exposure, the film was developped by a local lab service using the C-41 protocol. The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5. The RAW files obtained were processed without intermediate files in LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg accompanied by some documentary smartphone Vivo Y76 color pictures.
About the camera and the lens :
This exemplary of Nikon F (engraved "Nippon Kogaku Tokyo") has a serial number beginning by 658xxxx and was consequently manufactured in the mother Oi Nikon factory in Tokyo, Japan, between Dec. 1964 and April 1965. I bought the camera in Feb. 2022 from Japan. The Nikon F body came with the normal lens Nikkor-S 1:2 f=5 cm, branded "Nippon Kogagu". For the photo session the body was equipped with the body shell of a late Nikon F CTT ever ready bag. This body shell holds the original leather neck strap and is made of a metallic shell covered outside by a black leather and a dark-red velvet inside.
Using tiffen polarizer. Top is where it's rotated to have least effect, bottom where it's rotated to have most effect. It does show much more effect here than the other times I've tried clouds, so maybe I previously wasn't doing a good job deciding when to use it. I gotta admit it makes a pretty noticeable difference here. Though, it is oddly much more noticable on some screens than others.
Organic acids "crystallized" on a microscope glass slide and photographed on polarized light.
This is melted citric acid and I think it is not really crystallized but rather amorphous.
