One of the first purchases I ever made on the Internet was a series of camera filters because neither the "big box stores" in my area, nor the local mall camera store carried what I was looking for -- a circular polarizing filter, a warming filter and three 55mm UV filters. Out of sheer frustration I turned to the net and overcame my skepticism. I made my order, paid for it with my debt card and the filters arrived in the mail in just three days. Although still careful with my net dealings, as I hope you are when dealing with me, that single transaction ultimately lead to this web site.
So, I guess I owe Camera Filters.com a thank you. Let me say it now -- Thanks!
And, oh,yes, the wonderfully color saturated image of the tall ship just below the Camera Filters logo (to the left of this text) demonstrates just how effective a polarizing filter can be. The ship, by the way is the SS Lady Washington, but you may recognize it from the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean" where it was called the Black Pearl. |
