Trying out CPL

1 Comment

Growing from underneathI finally bought myself a Circular Polarizing Lens and I got it today. So like any new toy, you want to go play with it. So I loaded up my camera and went to Bull Creek District Park. It’s more or less a dog park, but it’s got some descent scenery.
The CPL I bought is a Hoya Purple 52mm. I got a fair price on it from http://www.camerafilters.com. It’s a friend of a friends site. (Please don’t hate me web guys because it’s not all prettied up web content.)

First thing that I noticed was that the colors were a lot more vibrant in the photos. Second thing was that the photos was definitely darker. The day itself was a bit cloudier than I anticipated. The place was heavily forested and under a cliff without a tripod meant that I was going to struggle to get shots I was looking for. But I was going to play with the new toy anyway.

Hope you enjoy, just click on the picture to see the other shots.
