There is perhaps no truer sign of summer than Independence Day in the United States. The Fourth of July is when the summer season kicks into full gear, with barbeques, pool parties, family gatherings, and road trips galore—not to mention the fireworks!
One lead-up to this holiday that I will never forget found me hurtling down the New Jersey Turnpike at sunset in a Greyhound bus. As the twilight deepened, bright bursts of fireworks began shooting up past the tree line, close by and at a distance, reflecting in the darkened glass of the

Pop on a pair of (decent) sunglasses and not only are your eyes less strained, things just look better. The reason for this is likely the polarization effect. Colors may appear more saturated, bright blue skies can take on a deeper hue, and some pesky reflections just vanish. All of these can benefit certain photographs and make the circular polarizer filter one of the best—and most difficult—filters to use.
Exactly What Does a Polarizer Do?

Like a painter choosing a paintbrush, a photographer’s lens choice will dramatically affect the resulting picture. This is especially true when it comes to landscape photography. Lens choice can make a big difference when you don’t have the benefit of directing your subject. A mountain will not turn its face toward the sun, no matter how hard you beg. As a result, your creativity is limited to a couple of key factors, such as time of day, weather, and―you guessed it, lens choice.
