...first attempts using a circular polarizing filter on my camera.
So far I have only been able to find camera filters in the dark color. Would love to find one in tan or amber but, unfortantly, the photography world doesn't intend the use of polarizing filter to "look into" the water. They just use them for sharpening images. I noticed the ability to rotate the filter can make a HUGE difference in clarity. Being able to choose which way the lens is bending the unwanted light rays is a feature I wish could be adapted to sunglasses !!
It takes alot more patience to photograph a fish than to catch him. I prefer to catch them.
