@phillyphotos this was the first time I have used capacity of camera to shift lens board sideways, swing it on an angle, and tilt it whilst moving down. on vertical plane. Four different movements creat impression that line of sight was up fence, when in fact tripod was set to side. Was a 3 sec exposure using the theory that IR film should be measured as though it is 6ASA to get a light reading

I love infrared so this really appeals to me. Nice lines too.
March 23rd, 2013  
really love that IR effect...
March 23rd, 2013  
That sky is killer, love the infrared.
March 23rd, 2013  
Killer sky. UV and IR just don't register for digital cameras the way they do for film, and especially the specialty film you chose. I am afreaid the chemical processing subtleties are beyond me however.

This is really random but the fence in the middle with the trees at the top looks like a stick of fairy floss... This may be because I spent all day giving fairy floss out at a community event...!

A very beautiful shot, love the mood!
March 23rd, 2013  
love the contrast and the way the clouds are layered
March 23rd, 2013  
I want to wander into this photo with a bottle of wine and a picnic.. Love the IR and how it still feels real.
