Cucamonga

An IR shot. Title inspired by Frank Zappa again.
.........................................................................................................
Out in Cucamonga
Many years ago
Near a Holy Roller Church
There was once a place
Where me and a couple of friends
Began practicing for the time
We might go
On TV
And as fate would have it
Later on we got a chance to play.
All we ever really knew:
That it was crazy





Why not check out “Fenced Off” while you’re here…

    You’ve done it again.. this is awesome work! A surreal mix of seasons and there is something about that fence in all of these that really adds to the composition and feel of the shot. One to come back to…

    Quite eye-catching. I’ve not really played with IR myself, but your photos are making it a very tempting prospect. The filter you’re using, is it an R72 IR filter that screws onto the lens filter thread, or something different ?

    I LOVE this! Firstly I love the beautiful blue/black sky you’ve captured/created. Secondly I love how that beautiful, seemingly sun filled colour can be right above what could look like frost covered ground. Love it, love it, love it.
