"Dont Make Love At The Garden Gate, Love Is Blind But The Neighbours Ain't." ~ Proverb
I am a bit pressed for time today, so no bloviating, heheheh. I was lucky enough to visit the Morikami gardens with my wife this weekend, and finally took some IR landscape photos with my Olympus and a Hoya R72 filter in the late afternoon sun. The C-8080 is not the best camera for infra red photography as the sensor is shielded by a fairly strong IR filter and it is prone to getting hot spots. However, with a little postwork, the images can sometimes be salvaged on occasion may even look halfway decent. The photos can be a little noisy too, but at web resolution, it takes on the appearance of film grain. Please click "zoom in" to see it full size, if you don't have that set as your preference.
