Opinions? I think that my polarizer did some weird stuff in that left corner...

Nice view, but a little tilted to the right. Think the colors are a little over saturated.
Not convinced that the bad spot is caused by the pf, but have no idea what it can be.

Quite a brilliant photo for colour. I like the shot.
What polarizer are you using? I found my cheap ol' Optex cir. pol. does the same at times but only with non-zoomed shots. just not as prominent as yours. Meaning the farther my lens is from the polarizer.
I don't have an add-on lens though so this may be a totally different scenario.

What wierd effect is in the photo? Are you thinking of the dark blue and light blue sections of the sky?
This is just scattered light (polarized) getting blocked by the polarizer and is normal. The lighter sections, the polarization of the scattered light is off axis to the polarizer filter and thus gets through.
To have a more even sky, turn your polarizer to less than optimum setting to allow more scatter polarized light through, or use a less wide angle lens.

Still tilted to the right.
The more I look at this picture the less I like it (sorry). It seems that all intersting points are drawn to the right bottom corner which leaves a big part of the shot with nothing.
