A week or so back, I showed you some photos from my trip to Castlemaine a while back. It was one of those days that I couldn’t stop using the infrared camera.
The first image is the same church that I photographed in colour in the last post from Malmsbury. You can see that post here if you want to compare. I love old churches like that, especially the ones built with bluestone. I do love the trees around the outside of this church, as it was really good for infrared photography. I’m starting to see that there are some trees that I love photographing in infrared.
The second photo is of a church in Castlemaine and sits on top of a small hill. I can’t remember what denomination it was, but it really stood out from where it sat especially because of the white paint.
The third one is part of Castlemaine Gaol, which is obviously no longer a gaol. I love the way the tower looked out over the town of Castlemaine below.
Another thing I’ve been thinking of doing is hand colouring some of my infrared images, like the following one I did from Tasmania in 2017.
Let me know what you think about me doing more of that.
Black & White is a lovely way to creat Mood in an old townscape setting.
It really is, thank you Peter.
Half IR black-and-white, half color – fits this little church perfectly, nice touch!
Thank you Marc, I like to think that too.
I didn’t know about hand coloring
Well not real hand colouring, I call it that, but I do it in photoshop. Does it still count?
I would say so!
😊
Nice work on the hand-coloring, Leanne.
Art
Thank you Art.
These are all awesome looking. I think you should do more colored infareds too, that last image was really interesting.
Thank you Adam. Yeah, I think I might, I liked doing it and it would still give the images a different look.
Fantastic images, Leanne!
Thank you Laura.
I think your hand-coloured images are beautiful.
Thank you Lynette.
You already knw what I think. Having said that, actually, I would be interested!
That’s great Margaret. Thank you.
Hand coloring? That is something I have not heard of before. Yes, more of that!
It is like hand colouring, but really you do it with brush in photoshop. Is that cheating?
Thank you Lois.
No! It is a very cool thing!
That’s great Lois.
As I’ve said before, the infrared camera sets a different mood. I like both color and infrared.
Thank you Anne, love hearing that.
