RE: St Peter's Church in Infrared - Lot's of photos!

in #photography10 years ago

@thecryptofiend I love them all but what I find the most intriguing is #7, it looked as if it's been taken with a drone.

As usual I love the tones. What's infrared technique and how does that work? - sorry photography nob :)

Sort:  

No 7 was taken from the North side of the Church where there is a large hill so that is why it looks like a drone. The IR filter is a 590nm one. This lets in infrared light and a little bit of visible light too. This is then white balanced in the Nikon Raw converter. The blue an red channels then need to be swapped in Photoshop to give a blue sky.

You can find an explanation of all of this here:

@thecryptofiend ah, that explains it. Anyhow - it still looks magical.

Thank you for explaining the effect of the IR filter and the whole process and thank you for the link ^ ^
