The two photos above are not adjusted in photoshop at all. The only difference between the two are a quick shift in the circular polarizer, deepening the blues. I'd forgotten how good of a job the polarizer does of it... ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk2YTFx8IBCG7aEzblOn82gCjBOCPp2o_WU20PMbND8AsWMYLRvNZUHhbp62TTlXzgYKkKxtRPKpi-kAKyhVmD1WjEAVTIAhB65ImIJgdufoTQDFlUTnHWej7fqoupBJhsGm4H/s400/_MG_5227.jpg)

This one allowed me to get a great exposure on the statue's face, yet still keep a deep, dark blue in the sky.

In this one, the tombstone had a touching, heart-breaking photograph of an infant. Without the polarizer, there would have been a glossy sheen to the photograph inset, and the glare would have obscured detail. With the polarizer, a little turn takes it all away.
I'd forgotten how cool a polarizer could be, and I'll definitely be using it more soon.
