Kirby Muxloe Castle by Simon Gladwin
Have been taking advantage of the sunny weather. Here is another IR shot. There were some strange sucking noises coming from the moat around this ruined castle…..so strange in fact that I was compelled to investigate. I walked over to the edge and was confronted by the open mouth of a HUGE mirror carp sucking bread off the surface…....I had thought it was a real moat monster that was fed prospective suiters for the squires daughter if they didnt come up to scratch. There is just something about old ruins that makes them gag to be photographed in IR…...I can feel a summer of weirdness in the offing….....if the sun keeps shining and the rain keeps off…......BEST VIEWED LARGE /

The Blue Lagoon by lightsmith
The lagoon was of course not blue. the blue of the sky is false colour obtained from the exchange of the red and blue channels of an infrared picture. The photo was taken in Geelong at the Aboriginal Craft & Cultural Interpretation Centre – Narana Creations. They have a beautiful walk and lots of artwork to buy. It’s a great chance to learn a little more about Australia’s real history. If it sounds like a plug then I guess it is although only by someone who’s been there once and was very impressed. It’s my first infrared lake so I’m happy with the results.

I’ve only been in Red Bubble for a week or two, but have become addicted I think. Thanks to everyone who has put me on their watchlist, it’s a real thrill. I’m off to New Zealand for about 4 weeks – part business, part holiday. I have a NZ photo book which is selling over there and I want to push the marketing of it a bit. I don’t need an excuse to visit NZ as I love it to bits and keep going back. So I’ll have to wean myself off red bubble for a while. If you don’t see any of my stuff for a few weeks then you will know why – I’ll be having a great time and hope to return with new images to share. Mike

Before Departure by Naomi Frost
Last upload for a few days..I’m off to Sydney to see what I can find to shoot in IR. Camera: Canon EOS 450D also known as Digital Rebel XSi ISO 400 / f/5.6 / Exposure: 20sec / Focal Length: 18mm Custom White Balance set to green grass on a sunny day Not a RAW file I find Lightroom automatically changes the whitebalance when I load pics into it when they are RAW and channel swapping doesn’t work. So I just shoot in JPG. There’s no change with those. Not sure why that happens. R72 filter KOOD / Tripod Weather: Nice and sunny with hardly any wind about. Channel swapped in Paintshop Pro 7 (Change the red source channel to 0%, green 0% and blue 100%. without leaving, change the output channel to blue and set the red to 100% blue and green to 0%) and played with in The Lightroom until I got it to look like this.

About This Group
Exploring the world through infrared eyes.
So what is infrared photography??
The peculiarities of infrared photography lie in it’s ability to capture what the eye cannot see. Infrared photography captures radiation wavelengths just beyond the visible spectrum. Characteristics of infrared photographs are deep black skies, bright white foliage and sometimes bright blue skies. Often quite mundane scenes can be transformed into extraordinary images when captured with infrared.
How do I take infrared images?
Most cameras are fitted with sensors to cut out infrared light. To combat this you will need to attach an infrared filter to your camera. These are referred to as R72 filters. You will probably need long exposures so a tripod and a shutter release cable will be a must. To get the best results always shoot in RAW. You may also want to set a custom white balance. Do this by shooting at a patch of green grass. Also remember, that infrared photography works best during the heat of the day.
