Herb, That's just bizarre, it looks like you've discovered a chlorophyll filter.

i was shooting yesterday in the Catskills and needed an in-between ND filter of 4 stops because i only had my 6-stop B+W filter with me and not my 3-stop one. since i carry a Hi-Tech 85mm square ND filter with me in my Cokin P grad ND filter bag, i placed it on the filter holder in front of the circular polarizer and proceeded with my shooting. chimping on the LCD showed something odd, but i wasn't sure of the magnitude. everything looked OK in the viewfinder. getting back home and looking on the monitor showed really radical effects. anyway, here is a link to a small gallery showing a pair of results with a combination of Cokin circular polarizer + Hi-Tech 4-stop ND versus Hoya Super HMC Pro 1 circular polarizer and B+W 6-stop ND filter. the "normal" color ones were taken with the Hoya/B+W combination while the "odd" ones were taken with the Cokin/Hi-Tech combination.

what gets me is that looking through the viewfinder and just holding the filters up to look directly through them don't show any difference between the combinations.
