I've been noticing some weird vertical bands with shots of the water taken with my polarizing filter. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the issue here is (ie., is it technique, equipment, or just natural phenomena).
For reference, I'm shooting with a Hasselblad, using the Hasselblad linear polarizing filter. The shot below is on B&W film (Delta 400), but I see the same issue when I shoot with my CFV back. I haven't noticed banding (not sure if this is the proper term...) with other shots taken with the polarizing filter (ie., windows, etc.), but I don't use it that much anyway.
I did happen to drop the filter in the Merced River a number of years ago. I didn't (and still don't) notice any problems with the filter visually after it dried out.
