A Touch of Green

A single tree, in a quiet Utah canyon, adds a pop of contrasting color that catches the eye.

Photographed with a converted infrared Nikon D300, and edited with the nik silver efex pro software.

Three Pines

I have posted several infrared photographs lately, but I have learned to love making fine art photographs this way.  I enjoy the surreal feeling that it gives my images.  It's also been a challenge to use this technique, and learn the tonal values in a light that we don't see naturally with our own eyes.  As an artist, I love these challenges!  It keeps things interesting, and helps me learn and grow as a photographer.  

Monument Valley

Captured in infrared, a spring rain shower passes through Monument Valley, Arizona.

Multnomah Falls

The beautiful Multnomah Falls in Oregon.
At 620 feet, this waterfall is the most visited and well known in the Columbia River Gorge.  My favorite time to visit this area is in the autumn when there are vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows, that  add contrast to the lush greens. 

Agathla Peak

Infrared of Agathla Peak near Kayenta, Arizona.  This mountain is considered sacred by the Navajo.
