it was kind of a strange - no pictures in this thread :)
the second one is with cpl rotated to enhance reflections, without it it would be less pronounced but very similar. helps a lot to bring back the greens - or the yellows.

The changing effect in the sky would happen with stitched shots in a wide panorama as well as with an ultra-wide lens. The cause of the effect is the changing angle from the sun and thus the changing polarization of the light from the scene.

I diidn't mean to imply that I used a polarizer on any of my stitched shots - I don't. I meant that I didn't use an ultrawide. Sorry for the confusion.


I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
