I have to say I really am not a fan of infrared and the palms that look as if they are frozen is disconcerting, but…beautiful building and great composition
@beverley365 Hi Beverley. Thanks for your lovely comment. I think the house is being lived in - it was really well maintained and did not have a sign indicating that it was a rental or holiday property. Cheers Rob
@carole_sandford Hi Carole - they made them well in those days - so much wonderful workmanship. All made from hard wood so they last forever... As you said - just wonderful buildings.
Hi everybody - thanks for your interest in the Queenslander. In the era in which this was built all of the buildings had the same basic lines and features as this house. Depending on your wealth they varied in size and decoration - from very basic to every palatial. This would have been the upper end of the middle range. They are very typically found mainly in Queensland - as their structure allowed for good ventilation suitable to our tropical climate. They are much loved and highly sought after. Cheers Rob
Just a quick thank you for your comments re this IR image. The IR seems to work quite well on buildings - without having to do much in the way of modifying the tones. Having said that the vegetation nearly always has that frozen, silvery appearance as a result of the settings needed for the building.. I don't mind it as a contrast to the tones of the buildings - but in other compositions eg landscapes, the tones of the vegetation become more muted and natural - just not green!....LOL Anyway - It's always interesting to see what you get for any new situation...

I love the white feathery feeling trees and white bush.
It doesn’t look lived in!
