While going through the photos from Taiwan for yesterday’s monthly “throwback” post, I inevitably saw a couple of unedited photos that I liked enough to work on them and in this particular one, it was possible to show a few useful techniques in a very simple photograph, so I recorded a video of the process.

How Did I Not See This?!
How did I not notice the poorly polarized sky in the example photo that I used in my video… where I show how to fix this? :)
