Location: Louisville, KY
Date: Apr 17, 2007
Aperture: f/11

Shutter: 2sec

Date Uploaded: Apr 17, 2007

 Last minute edit and entry. One of my first attempts at infrared (I have been waiting all winter for some greenery!) There will probably be a ton of infrared shots in a landscape challenge, but I've been dying to play with it so here goes. I still need to work on the editing, but I'm fairly pleased. I feel like the infrared added some umph to a relatively boring landscape and I like it.

The editing was what I have gathered to be standard IR editing: swap blue and red channels, curves for contrast, and messed with hue/saturation to get the colors I liked.

Pretty cool shot, great tones and colors. However, I can´t shake the feeling I would have liked it more if you had tilted the camera upwards, having less foreground and more sky.

This is beautiful. I love the contrast of blue/black with the snow.

Nicely converted IR. The composition is nice, but perhaps I would have walked a little closer to the main tree so it dominates just a bit more. 7

Nice photograph. I can't tell if the white is produced by editing or snow at the scene. It looks really great either way though. Nice photograph.

I love the way the snow covers the ground in this. It IS snow isn't it - not that fake IR stuff? Very nice deep blue skies give a nice counter-balance to the lighter ground colors. Good luck in the challenge.

I love these kinds of photos. Is it IR? Great colors and lighting. It almost feels like I'm on another planet. Good job.

I love polarizers but in this instance I think that the nearly black sky is distracting. A little "lighter" sky would have really sealed this image. Still a stunning shot.
