Phil, great techniques. Thanks for sharing.
When it comes to circular polarizer, it will darken sky at 90 degrees to sun, but will not darken brightest areas of the clouds, so you will end up with same amount of dynamic range for the given scene. Some people might choose to over-expose clouds, but I wouldn't. UV filter helps to create more definition in a distant haze, but the effect is pretty minimal so people use UV filter mostly for lens protection.
