Excellent first effort Alan You live in a delightful spot That huge camper looked a bit out of place across the road though Found the mounting position of you camera a bit disconcerting.. felt like you were almost driving on / over the while line all the time Quite bright still for that time of night (I'm guessing the camera made it look lighter than it was?)Interesting the way the time/date stamp was floating (I have mine turned off) but usually they are static I must get a decent camera mount ( velcro attached to my dash mat is a bit crude compared to you guys) (off to search ebay ...
Gee, there are some small-minded people around.No one talks to them (other than you) because they have a motor home.
I thought the reflection was well controlled Alan camera polarising filters are fairly cheap and readily available over here...
This could serve to polarise camera operators accross the world.
Might be the time to start playing with the ISO setting...
Alan, you did a great job with the polarising filter. Might I suggest as a test only, crudely taping a plastic polaroid sunglass lens to the camera. I know from wearing them, that screen reflections are eliminated. If you can prove in principle that it works that will give you a starting point from which to rig up a solution. You said you oriented the filter Does that mean you tried at least 90 Deg which the polarising filter should be sensitive to.
As it happens my lens is so close to the (angled) glass that any dirt or rain spots are totally out of focus - but reflections are not.
