Here is an example of how a polarizer can bitch slap automotive glare. This would be considered a prime example, sometimes depending on the angle you may only have a portion of this glare reduced.

wowsers... thats awesome!
thanks for showing us this travis.
solidifies the fact i desperately need to buy a polarizer...
This is an EXCELLENT example Travis :)
Can I use your photos in a blog post on this subject?
thx - Marko
I bought one last weekend. For me it's taking a bit of getting use to.
Thanks Travis for showing the difference a polarizer can make :)
At first, I thought... you know... the reflections look cool in the car. But in this picture, it really doesn't. The polarizer makes the shot look so much better.
Thanks for sharing that image. I actually kind of argue against polarizers, because I always think.. Ill just do it in post process... well, this would take a whole lot of time in post process to fix for one... for two, the image is just plain better with the polarizer.
Sometimes, I will take a shot with post processing in mind. I have been using photoshop since the day it came out... I actually love post processing. But, there are some things that I just can't do with photoshop unless I spent hours and hours on it... this is definitely one of those.
Might reduce glare but the reflections can be a bit harsh...need to be careful about that. Or, have reflections that add to the image. I do like how nice the windshield appears and the punch of the color on the car!
Thanks again Travis! I posted the images in the blog.
