My confidence level grew as I played with Photoshop, and my eyes began to be trained to look for the right kind of conditions to shoot IR pictures.
And on this day Serene and I went shooting around the Supreme Court area.
Here is the ClubSNAP thread: Supreme Court walk ~ IR [limwhow]
The day was cloudy, unfortunately. And I tried bringing up colours in my IR shots of the day, but with little success. So in a twist, I converted them to a almost monochromatic (almost) effect.
The discussions on this thread was interesting for some members question the feasibility of IR photography under such circumstances. Indeed, the characters of IR-ness in these shots were subtle. But I felt that they still come through to the surface.
The clouds over Victoria Theatre were dramticised by the infrared rays. |
It was with quite some luck that I managed to capture this little old mini driving right onto the turn as I pressed the shutter.
Old car in an oldish setting. Almost perfect.
What a coincidence! A little vintage car drove by as I snapped the shutter, giving this shot the much-needed nostalgic feel. |
Anything that is alive and reflects infrared light rays will turn out white, as in this case of the tiny little flower emerging from between the concrete slabs. |
