On my way to work

Pablo · 3rd July 2005

Hi guys,
I stopped on my way to work today and took a few shots in IR.
I was shooting in the other direction (sun behind me) and decided to turn around and take a shot.

This is what I shot. I was doing the post processing in PS and decided to stop at this point (no channel swap etc).

What do you think ? (yes it is dark but I prefer it like this).

Cheers

I like it. Focus seems a little off but I like the feeling the scene invokes, sort of makes you feel that you're in a sci-fi or Twilight Zone movie.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers
Matt

Hi deadpixel,
Thanks for your comment

Yeah, the focus could have been better !

It does look a little bit Twilight Zone hey

Thanks again for your comment.

I like the canopy of dark clouds in the foreground, nice effect like what deadpixel said.

Focus seems to be at the far end of the scene. Should have focused on the signalling platform right in front of you. You should select your 5 point focus on the left instead of the center on the camera (hope you know what I mean).

But overall

Hi teerex,

I had a touch of "lazy" come over me when I took this shot

I did it in the blind so to speak ....
I still had the R72 filter on from a shot in the other direction; turned around,
took a guess at what the camera was pointing at, then pressed the shutter button.

It is a shame I didn't take the time to focus manually (filter off of course).

Thanks for the thumbs up.

P.S. I like your PS work in your recent photo's !!!!

Looks like a futuristic photo of what our Earth will be like when we continue to abuse it with pollution and industrialisation! Mood is there.
