Cool effect. How you get it?

tsiklonaut · 11-09-2010, 10:06 AM

Love IR myself, especially if done on a proper b&w IR film:

Persepolis, Islamic Republic of Iran

Palmyra, Syria

Some Roman amphitheatre, Syria

Wadi Rum desert, Jordan

Baja California, Mexico

Baja cactii

Joshua Tree National Park, U.S. of A.

Icy Spiti penninsula, my home country Estonia

Baltic Sea coast, Estonia

Estonian winter.

Just a reflection across my hometown lake.

Ride safe,
Margus

I do love the film b&w too........but the 665nm(converted 40d) filter on my digital keeps me shooting to. I find a lot of film ir guys hate it......I know why but....I think we'll be seeing a lot more of this in the future.

Stunning shots BTW

I absolutely did not mean I hate the digital IR! Love it too, it's just that I'm a bit oldschool oriented bloke in photography with the need of "film feel" in the image - grainy halftones, bleached highlights etc, that give the "punch" to B&W photos which film usually does. And obviously it's purely a taste thing.

But in some cases and in the right hands digital IR works also super wonders IMHO.

Here's a colour IR portrait with my wife Kariina, shot by a friend of mine (Canon D1s converted to IR-camera) Note that sunglasses are supposed to be black, but IR band of light sees through them

OK, I'll now go and hide, since usually I never post pics of myself...

Ride safe,
Margus

I know this isn't quite what you had in mind but... it is technically the right spectrum right?

BTW the winter pic is fantastic!

cooter69 · 11-09-2010, 01:10 PM

Margus,

That's a great shot you look like a superhero

Therobg if I had the dough to waste I would definately have a thermal camera.......I would make more money using it than my others......

You rarely see these outside of the commerical setting very cool shots

Yep margus has some skills. I gotta say the sea one for the tonal range detail and motion . There is not a single shot he posted that wouldn't be hanging somewhere.

thomasona · 11-10-2010, 12:31 PM

My contributions. These are all about five years old. I was taking an "alternative processes" class and one of our areas of study was infrared photography. I loved it at the time, but haven't really touched it since then. For years now I've been meaning to convert my older Nikon to a dedicated IR camera, but I just can't bring myself to do it yet.

Those first two were shot with a Nikon D70 with a (IIRC) #67 IR filter over the lens. That number may be off. This next one here was taken with my Nikon 35mm with a DX 18mm lens on the front. Don't remember the film or settings, but I do know that this is one GRAINY photo.

Yes, what really gets me is the soft backlighting on the snow. He did a perfect job holding the exposure in the highlights. Not so bright that it's blown out, but not so dark that it looks like sand. Then, of course, the framing, the fog, etc.

I'm inspired to get my camera and IR filter and hit the road!

cooter69 · 11-10-2010, 12:49 PM

Nice additions!!!!
You should dig that filter out and put it to work!!!!

I guess should add a b&w too

I love B&W and Ir.

anotherguy · 11-10-2010, 03:56 PM

I don't have any scanned but used to shoot a shit ton of Kodak color IR. Wonderful stuff to play with. Sadly it's gone all except for a German guy who's cutting it from sheet and spooling for 120. And even he'll run out soon.

I just checked he's out. Damn.
