Try to find other colors to offset these tones, such as a red barn on a hillside. Include wildflowers in bold and beautiful reds, yellows, and oranges. You can reduce haze and reflections from nonmetallic surfaces and enhance color saturation by using a polarizing filter. A polarizer will also darken blue skies photographed at right angles to the sun. Adjust an automatic camera manually, if possible, because the meter may not give you a correct reading through the filter.
Most polarizing filters consist of an outer ring and an inner ring.
As you look through the viewfinder, rotate the outer ring until you see the effect you want. With a non-SLR camera, look directly through the filter as you rotate it. When you see the effect you want, keep the filter in the same orientation as you place it over the camera lens. It requires no increase in exposure. At higher altitudes, where snow, rocks, and streams prevail, and the dwindling of color creates an overall monochromatic landscape, find the texture of the scene, as well as shadow play.
