Starting with Infra-Red Photography Part 10: A visit to a garden

On Monday we decided to visit a local garden: The Dorothy Clive Garden – it is about 12 miles from where we live. I thought this would be a good opportunity to try some real photography with my new purchase of an Infra-Red converted camera. I found it an interesting exercise and started to learn about how to get the most out of it. Below is a selection of photos from the trip:

A view through the garden with the landscape in the background
A path through the daffodils: unfortunately the flowers, stems and leaves all show as white
A tree stump carving of a badger – this turned out better than I expected
This is the colour version of the badger carving taken with another camera
A water cascade – a contrast between the white looking leaves and the darker tones of the pool
A vertical panorama showing the garden going up the hillside from the lower pond

I am gradually learning what works and what doesn’t and, importantly, how to process the images.
