I would use use Aperture priority and leave the camera to sort of the shutter speed, this way you get a reasonable balanced exposure throughout.
Just what aperture will depend on the subject, and that requires some trial shots.
but, if you include the sun in the frame then you are going to have a problem, unless you want large parts of the sky burnt out ...

First we need to clear up a confusion caused by photographers too often not having paid attention in physics class. There are two types of polarization, linear and circular.
Linear polarization defines what plane the light is oriented in. It could be horizontal versus vertical, for example. Sky light bouncing off of a horizontal dielectric, like a ...

This looks like a spacer ring, which is used to add space between a lens and a filter (such as close-up filter) or other lens attachment to assist in focusing adjustment or increasing the angle of view.
Note, however, that using this could create some vignetting, especially on wide-angle lenses.
