Polarizing Filter for Watch Shots = Brilliant !!
In Response To: Cool shots! ()


I usually carry the polarizing filter on sunny vacations (as shown below, Colorado, 2005) and also to shoot through glass / out my office window, but it never occured to me that this would help reduce the glare from a watch crystal . . . great idea . . . can't wiat to try it!!

On this Cosmonaute shot, I was going for the detail / drama, and trying to shoot quickly . . . it got a bit dark in the process, and the color is missing . . . experimentation to continue!!
