Polarized Vision on water surface





Glare due to light hitting water surface can be reduced by filtering through a polarized lens. Professor (Geol. ret.) Don Garlick explains this phenomenon here:

Nature has an abundance of forms and flavors. Vision in animals may filter for color, ultra-violet, infra-red, polarized, transparency, fluorescence, rhythmic flashing, wing-eye-spots etc.
