Valium Skies
This is an old infrared shot. I’ve been doing lots of portraits lately and haven’t had the opportunity to shoot much infrared . I found this one on the hard drive and had a little play with it.
It was taken at a place called Little Pelican, down near Swansea. It’s part of Lake Macquarie.

Valium Skies belongs to the following groups:
Infrared Photography, Landscape Photography, Nautical, Newcastle NSW, Lake Macquarie & Surrounding Region and Shameless Self-Promotion Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Sigh….just dreamy composition Nome. I love the way the tree looks like it wants to get into the boat and go for a row….gripping the oars with its roots! The sky is wonderful…..topaz adjust is great. Jjust a wonderful scene Nome….the best sort of valium for a gloomy wednesday morning at work…my year 9 class seem to have died and noone has told them…

This is a very captivating image, Naomi. I’m new to Redbubble and currently I’m mainly a bird photographer. I have used an IR camera to monitor nocturnal roosting behaviour of cranes as a biologist. I was often quite struck by the artistic nature of what I could see, but I didn’t realise there were actual photographers who shot IR images for artistic purposes. This photograph and the Infrared Photography group make me want to go out and buy an IR filter for my camera now! Thanks for the inspiration.
