Sunglasses Polarizer
If you really want to add some punch to your images, then get your hands on a polarizing filter. A polarizer is the one filter every photographer should have handy for landscapes and general outdoor shooting. By reducing glare and unwanted reflections, polarized shots have richer, more saturated colors, especially in the sky.
What's that you say? Your digital camera can't accommodate filters. Don't despair. I've been using this trick for years with my point-and-shoot cameras. If you have a pair of quality sunglasses, then simply take them off and use them as your polarizing filter. Place the glasses as close to the camera lens as possible, then check their position in the LCD viewfinder to make sure you don't have the rims in the shot.
If your camera doesn't accept filters, then you can still achieve the effects of a polarizer by placing your sunglasses over the lens.
I suppose it depends on the size of your Lens, and if the glasses Lens will cover it. Also I think it might be a bit awkward holding the Camera, and the glasses at the same time, worth a try though
