Polarising Filter aids getting dramatic Monochrome shots

As promised, here are the 1st shots taken this evening with Polariser. Does make getting those blacks in to the sky a hell of a lot easier

Re: Polarising Filter aids getting dramatic Monochrome shots

No tripod I'm to lazy a) to buy one & then b) to take one out

On serious note it would have helped as shutter speeds were pretty slow to be hand holding

Re: Polarising Filter aids getting dramatic Monochrome shots

It looks like you found the spot you like, I have just discovered mine, "if where talking about a colorized polariser" I can adjust the tint 3 ways or 360 degrees. My spot helps make darker blue in the skys,,. Is that what helps you convert to black, the darker blue?
anyway,,like your shots, #3 with sun is great.
