Thanks. IMO, a polarizer does best with partly cloudy skies, where the glare reduction of the blue sky can increase contrast and pop the clouds from the blue background. I avoid using them with large clear skies to avoid the uneven polarization issue.
I also bring out a polarizer for waterfalls to control glare on the rocks, and for foliage scenes to "green" up the leaves.
There are so many more applications including eyeglasses for portraits, car windows, reflective insects, wine bottles, etc. I generally realize i could've used a polarizer after the fact, lol.
