It's a 58mm circular polarizer that I bought at a local camera store about 10 years ago. The brand name is Pro Optics and it was not very expensive, If I remember correctly about $20 US. I'm sure there are much better ones and I'm also sure that they're a lot more expensive. I think it would also be nice to have a warming polarizer, I've see shots made with one of those and they are quite nice.

Yes, they are yummm. When I was a teenage girl, I would ride my horse and make him stand beneath a persimmon tree so that I could pick them off the tree and eat them.

I'm sure you shared with the horse.
