Description

A new Infra Red shot.
Finally found back my IR filter, missed it really bad.

The sky doesn't look blue as it was a very cloudy day.

I am torn on whether to crop from bottom or not ? Please put in your suggestions.

As always frank Critiques comments are very much welcome.

Lens : Zeiss Planer 50mm / 1.7
IR Filter : Hoya R72
Aperture : f/8
Shutter speed : 20 sec.
ISO : 100


This shot also had a great run on flickr for some reason shot to number 15 on explore.

Very well done. I like the composition, wouldn't crop it at all.

A wonderful composition.
Really top stuff for IR imo.

I see a few round circles on the sky section. The most noticable is top left corner.
I see still 2 more (less noticeable). Should fix that. I will vote afterwards.

This is so beautiful! The mood is so peacefull, it is like a beautifull dream.
Lovely contrast. Specially between the roughly hard rocks and the fluffy looking grass. The tree is great.
I see there is a ray of light in the middle, somewhere in the back. Thats is also very nice captured.
I wouldn't crop a thing.
Indeed top stuff for IR.

Absolutely stunning. Easily one of my favourite photos from all of gfxartist. Love it!
(Agreed that you should heal out the dust spots.)

Very very nice. I just love the composition and the contrast between the whites and the dark boulders. I might have given more room for the tree at the top left ... both above and to the left.

Nice composition. The grass goes well with the sky, so dont worry about the sky! :p

Btw, I've the same filter, the thing I do before capturing a IR photo is to take a photo from a green or white point to setup manually the white balance, but it stays too red anyways...

Do you have any hints you can share? :)

Thanks!

EDIT: I would crop it an inch too on the bottom! :)

Hello Rushi! Surprised to see a comment from me?

Yes, it's been way too long, an eternity, and it's sad, but that's life... I just happened to stumble back onto gfx an was overrun by nostalgia, so here I am to comment your work!

I like this shot a lot. I like how you have used the IR effect in a somewhat different way than IR is normally used. I like how the large aperture brings out the three dimensional look. So, in my opinion, you should not crop an inch of that foreground. That's what makes this piece special.

great work.
good contrast.
I would try another composition with the tree in the center.
