Distant landscapes often appear hazy, washed-out and blue due to Rayleigh scattering.
What can be done to maximise the contrast range of the exposure when photographing such scenes?
For example:
- Would any sort of hardware, camera settings, or type of "film" (including digital) produce better results?
- Are there reliable ways to predict when haze will be lowest?
Answer
You should be able to decrease the haze a bit using a polarizer or haze filter.
Additional Information on Haze filters
A haze filter absorbs a greater about of UV light than a normal UV filter can.
For Tiffen Haze filters:
Haze 1 - Reduces excessive blue haze caused by UV light by absorbing 71% of UV. Great all-around UV control.
Haze 2A - Absorbs all UV light; reduces haze; maintains color and image clarity. Best for high altitude and marine scenes.
