    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.

    Yep, I wouldn't fish without a pair. In my experience with sunglasses cheap is just as good as expensive.

    Polarisation filters light so waves entering the lens can only enter in one direction, thus blocking the light rays of the reflection which are at a different angle.
