A couple false colour IR images of Nicole sketching in the park yesterday:

I spent much of the day yesterday at the museum of civilization.  Whenever I go I am struck by the beauty of the building itself, inside and out.

I had my D300-IR camera with me, which is usual these days.  I’m taking it with me most everywhere, shooting many different subjects to get a feel for what it will do.  Then back at home there is endless playing with post-processing for the same reason.

I didn’t expect to be very interested in the false-colour approach that many people use, but sometimes I like the effect.  Here’s an example from the museum.

This time with some different processing

A few days ago I received back a Nikon D300 converted for infrared photography by LifePixel.  My infrared journey has begun! I can tell already it is going to take a while to develop my eye for this kind of work.

We also ran across a wonderful derelict bus today.  I am definitely returning to shoot this with a more usual kit.
