Infrared Photography

[ark19]

Hi teerex,
Yes, I got that too here when I tried. Too blue .... Maybe I have become too fussy, after seeing your posted works :dunno:


Hi ark19,
here is a link to the original in PBase (1 day left in trial account...forgot about it being there).
I was trying it out (PBase) but hadn't decided on it.... any way.

Hi Pablo,
looks like the acc had expired? Couldn't dl the jpg... :dunno:

Maybe you can post one of ur S602Z IR photo for us to gauge the PS required?

Here is my take on the photo:

Btw, the dark clouds reminds me of LOTR... if only there is a boy to pose as Frodo :think:

Hi ark19,
That is a good modify. I have played with is but couldn't get that good.
tomcat I like yours too.
teerex, (the guy that started off my interest in IR), how can I not hurt ?
maybe a bit saturated ?

Thanks guys. Don't know if you still want to play with it but I have put it here

Ark, can you remember the value of swap you make to each color for this post process..mind to share with me. How did you turn the leaves to almost white and sky purple..
Thanks!

I actually have a standard action set to do the basic changes. After that edited Hue once. Then edit Hue again, choosing Yellow.... any idea where I can post the action for download. Will try to replicate again tonight... and post the settings here

Thanks Ark, maybe can just cut and paste the "action" here when you are free.

 

[ark19]

Err.... PS action can paste as text? :dunno:

Oh , maybe you can post it as an Img by doing the following:-
1.Open your PS ,. enlarge the "Action" on the PS screen
2.go to your desktop then press printscreen on ur keyboard.
3. Paste on the new document
4. Upload your new doc ( with the Action) as img here.

hmm, if too troublesome..just type out the action here.

Hi Hosea, Here are the Steps:

1. Run "My IR" Action

2. Image/Adjust/ Hue/Saturation
Edit: Master
Hue: +36

3. Image/Adjust/ Hue/Saturation
Edit: Yellows
Lightness: +100

4. Image/Adjust/Curves
Input: 134
Output: 122

That's it. Tried to get back the same results as I'd not noted it down yesterday...

This is "My IR" Action:

Hi Ark
paiseh...
I managed to load your atn file into my CS PS.
Saw 2 actions
1. My action
2. Blue channel

I clicked 1.and see the effect on one of my color photo.
When click on the blue-channel , the photo turns back to its original color.
Will try on an IR photo soon

thanks very much again ... will try again

Oops, forgot to mention, just use "My IR".
"Blue Channel" is used to switch channels without the other steps.
"My IR" has a step to switch channels. That's y when u run both, it will go back to the original colour

:bsmilie: oh..no wonder.
I tried your action..on the same photo we experimenting..the leaves didnt turn as white and the sky bluish as what you had done for pablo.
I think you did further action after "my action"..right..
Great experimenting and thanks..

Playing with 2 different workflows for the same picture. Does any one of them work for you guys?

Hi I like the color tone of 1st and 3rd photo.
The 3rd one ( with bridge) is great except the patch of overexp on the left.. kind of glaring
No 1 is great... just do something to the tilt..haha.. I know this is causes by blind shooting , right??


The other 2 posted later.. I felt a tad to dark, do you think so..

Great to keep the IR spirit...
Did you went back again to the same place to take these shots??

 

[Pablo]

Wow :bigeyes:
I really like these; what wonderfull finds of places to shoot.

The bridge one is my favourite.
Something I never considered was that the IR effect should apply to reflections of trees in water :think:
The sixth one of the art object in the water I quite like too.

Thanks for showing me I have a long way to catch up :cry: :bsmilie:

Thanks for your opinions Hosea. Too tired and lazy to correct the horizon . I think the other two pics are too dark too, but just wanted to find opinions.

Yes, I went back there again yesterday. We did not venture into that area the last time we were there. Sun was good after 2 days of shower.

Here's #1 with corrected horizon.

 

[vortex]

same here...i like this pic

i found the other 2 very dark somehow?

it's the place we went to right? :lovegrin:

is it normal to wait this long for a filter?!?! bloody 2 weeks already man....getting irritated ;(

Yo Pablo, glad you like the pics. There are a lot of places to shoot in any part of the world. Sometimes a scene may not look good, just shoot you may like it. Never be afraid to experiment.

Here's another with play of reflection, hope you like it.
