So today I went with my family to my Dad’s farm just outside of PE. I was testing out a new filter that I bought, a circular polarizer to see what effect it had on the photos. It had positive effects, but I was simply unable to capture the scenes that I was hoping to. I think its definitely time for me to take a photography course. Anyway, there are some spectacular views there so I thought I’d upload some of the shots I took on my day out there.
So for me who doesn’t know anything… What effect is the filter supposed to have?
It’s a filter that attaches to the lens, then you can twist it based on the orientation of the camera. When you twist it it polarizes the light. Basically you can block out light on a certain wave length, so for example if I aim it at the sea, and usually tons of light gets reflected off the waves, I can use the polarizer to block out that reflected light… hope that made sense?
