Hi, Warren-- Glad that I could help you with the finger-thumb thing for areas of deepest blue light. You can readily see this affect with the naked eye when there is no haze, but with the polarizer the sky might just jump out at you as it removes sky reflections that people did not know existed. I am still amazed myself at times at the difference with and without the filter once I have found that part of the sky by using my "hand gun". It is astounding what colors are out there that are being masked by atmospheric conditions which otherwise would have been missed by the casual observer.
I have toyed with the idea of writing a book about all of these photo tips for railfan shooters, but need to expand my coverage of railroads for more geographic diversity, first. Gary Benson's book was great, but he did not reveal any professional "secrets".
