This one is with a wide angle lens, 28 millimeter. I wanted to get down low to the ground and use a polarizing filter to get real depth in the colors. Plus, the wide angle lens gives me great depth of field.

I went on to use the polarizer for a number of other shots you'll see here. Anytime you see a "bluer than blue" sky in a photo, that's a shot with the polarizer screwed in.
