Sometime ago I was bought a polarised lens filter for my camera by my wife, we have water out the back so the opportunity for water landscapes is huge and I had read that a polarised lens filter brought out the colour in the water, I could see the difference by wearing sunglasses or not so I was sure it would work.
I took a number of pictures and to be honest they didn't look any different with or without the filter attached. The filter got chucked in the camera bag never to be used again.
Just recently a friend was giving me some camera tips and mentioned the rotating ring on the polarised lens, suggesting that I try the lens in different positions to experiment with the polarising effects. I tried this the next day and I am amazed at the results. I feel a little stupid but I am still happy to have been told how to use it properly.
