But whatever you do, don't, don't, for God's sake DON'T use it while on the
Equator, or it will destroy the space-time continuum as we know it...



 Hi,

 I hope you didn't pay too much for it. Circular polarizers are
 specifically designed only to be used above the Arctic circle, or
 below the Antarctic circle. If you're shooting penguins in black 
 white (and why woudn't you?) the use of one of these filters increases
 the contrast, particularly on King Penguins. If you use it in
 conjunction with a red filter then you'll get pictures of flamingos.

And definitely don't use it for portraits.
Makes everyone look like Lech Walesa.
