Creative / I created this image to remind us of the consequences of our actions if we continue to take our precious environment for granted. The location chosen is Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, a city free from catastrophic disaster. That is until Mother Nature turns back on us. We can keep running from what we have done but this is infinite future chaos! Thanks to Rikki & Jess for being models. You can see the before and after shots here Technical / The background was shot in 3 sections and stitched together in Photoshop CS3. Various parts from extra shots were used i.e. The Seven sign and text from another shot I took. I also cloned out people and objects as well as added elements to create this scene. The background, clouds, Rikki and Jess were shot separately on an old but trusty Canon 10D in RAW mode. Other images were sourced online and manipulated beyond original recognition. Once I had all the elements I needed I composited it all together in Photoshop CS3. I had to create some elements such as texture, debris, snapped cables and smoke from scratch using the good old airbrush and pen tools with various brushes all made easier with a A4 Wacom tablet but found that the mouse was sometimes better for other tasks. A lot of masking, deep etching, cloning, dodging and burning went into making this image what it is. Once complete I colour graded it to give it a real sense of drama and darkness.

I posted this a while ago but had to put it away until it was published in a magazine…well that magazine (Australian Digital Photography & Design) comes out next week (I think) so here you go…this is what I do….. HOW TO Shoot INFRARED IMAGES 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. / To achieve the effect, you need to use a lens filter that can block visible wavelengths of light, while allowing infrared (IR) light to pass through. The most readily available filter that can do this is an R72 screw-type filter. HOYA is the most popular but you can also purchase Lee and Cokin filters which act in the same manner. / All DSLR cameras are capable of detecting varying degrees of infrared light but manufacturers put permanent infrared blocking filters over the sensor to stop the infrared light penetrating. However, they still let some light through, so by placing an IR filter over your lens you will be able to capture these escaping wavelengths and thus a surreal image. / The downside to these IR filters is that they actually let in very little light of any kind so long exposures are necessary. Some cameras are more sensitive to IR than others but because you will have an exposure that it several seconds long a tripod is a necessity and a shutter release is optional. / Your IR filter will cut all visible light so the viewfinder will be rendered useless when it comes time to compose a shot. All images will need to be composed before the filter is attached. Point and shoot Digital Cameras are usually capable of seeing through the filter as the filters used to block the IR wavelengths are not as strong as those of the DSLR. So in many cases the filter can be attached when composing the image. As you will have a long exposure (of up to 20secs perhaps) still subjects are the easiest thing to shoot. Most successful IR shots are of landscapes. / An unedited IR imaged will take on a red hue and look un-useable, but this is just because you have not set a Custom White Balance (CWB). By attaching the filter and taking a shot of green grass and setting this as the CWB you will vastly improve your image. In doing this you will allow for mid-tones and whites to appear. Of course you can always adjust the white balance in Photoshop later. / All infrared images will need some post processing in Photoshop to get the best out of them. The simplest technique is to convert the image to Black and White and increase the contrast a little. This will achieve the classic infrared look achieved by infrared film. However, digital cameras can create false colours and can produce a surreal effect. Trees can be blue, the sky can be yellow and the ground red. .................................................................................................................................................... HOW TO PROCESS AN INFRARED IMAGE TO GET A SURREAL WINTERY FEEL. Step 0 — Bringing your file into Photoshop / Download your images – if RAW, convert (to tiff or jpeg) and bring into Photoshop. Note: Exposure and White Balance will make a difference on your final result, so there might be some trial and error – in general I set a Custom White Balance by attaching the R72 filter to the camera and shooting green grass. / Step 1 — Auto Levels / I always adjust the levels before progressing further. This will swing the colours significantly. SHIFT+CTRL+L is the shortcut for this process. If you have a good shot, tree leaves and clouds will appear close to White in colour and the sky will take on a yellow tinge. / Step 2 — Channel Mixer (Swap Red & Blue Channels) / From here on it is about shifting colours. If you want Blue sky you will need to swap the Red and Blue colors in your image. It is easiest to do this with the Channel Mixer. Image>Adjustment>Channel Mixer. / Set Red to 100% Blue / and set Blue to 100% Red. Leave Green 100% Green. / You could probably get a similar effect using Hue/Sat function to shift Hues, but Channel Mixer is MUCH easier. Step 3 — Levels (Clip Back and White Points) / Select IMAGE>ADJUSTMENTS>LEVELS and adjust the White and Black points. It seems beneficial to clip the Black point a bit and perhaps even the White point a little depending on the image exposure. Boosting midpoint may help as well (or may not). Input might be something like: 15, 1.10, 250 (for Black, Mid, and White) but this will be image dependent and you will have to tweak the settings. Experiment! / Step 4 — Hue/Sat (Adjust Sky & Cloud Color) / At this point your image should be pretty close, but you will probably want to further adjust Hue and Saturation. IMAGE>ADJUSTMENS> HUE & SATURATION. You can change individual colours by using the drop down menu in the EDIT box. To make the trees look whiter I reduced the saturation of all REDS in the image. / Step 5 — Brightness/Contrast / Now adjust the brightness/contrast of the image to bring out the colours just a bit more. IMAGE>ADJUSTMENT>BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST. In this image I increased the contrast by 5. / Step 6 – Noise Reduction / A feature of classic infrared film images is the film grain. If you are not a fan of the noise produced by your long exposure then use a NOISE REDUCTION FILTER to remove any excess noise. / Step 7 – Burning / If some parts of your image are not as dark as you would like use the BURN TOOL to bring them out a bit. In this image some of the tree trunks are a bit pale for my liking so I am going to burn them slightly, especially the ones reflected in the water. Make sure that you set the Range to SHADOWS and the Exposure should be set very low. I have set it to 5. / And there you have it – a fully processed Infrared image.
14 February 2009 ~ Late afternoon ~ Snapper Rocks On Friday a low pressure system formed off Gladstone late on Friday generating a large storm swell along Australia’s East Coast. By Saturday afternoon the swell had risen to a rather decent size making the paddle out rather precarious! (Canon 40D, 500mm handheld, touch of contrast, minor crop, no photoshop)

a bird on a barbed wire fence in Lawton OK. This is very near my home… Nikon D80 / May 7, 2009] We have birds making nests in our bbq if we leave the lid down. When I open it, I find bits of trash that they have collected along with the straw and twigs. We should all pay more attention to where our trash is ending up and maybe trying to buy “Naked Products” which are products with a little to no packagins as possible. Buy local and aways recycle! ;)

A wise man once said to me “That’ll be 3.98, do you need a bag?” which got me to thinking, what if I can double the love of this Picture/T-Shirt of the Week concept? How about when you lovely bubblers, on your day to day travels around the site, notice any new people that make your eyes open slightly wider in awe, you come back here, to a ‘special place’ I will make. Then leave a link, and a comment as to why you like an image or tee of theirs. Then I’ll pick the best new work, and pimp you both up in my weekly post. Might even send you both a special medal or something. What do you think? Go on, I can take it…
