IR in the Woods

IR in the Woods

Everything is still a little grey and bland in the woods, waiting for the green to start showing, so I took my full-spectrum IR A7ii today at lunchtime with my 16-35mm Sony f/4 and the 590nm “Supercolor” filter to add some interest…

And it certainly does add some interest to bare trees and washed out skies!

I’m still learning how to process the false color of these images, but it’s a lot of fun 🙂

Most of these images are “color swapped” (you swap the red and blue channels otherwise you end up with red skies), but that does interesting things when you have a blue car 😉

A few more pics from our exploration of Grafton Lakes State Park. I wish I’d brought my snowshoes, but what a wonderful place 🙂 Faith was in heaven!

Wow!

What an amazing place! Faith and I are at Grafton Lakes State Park for a quick morning run about. We’ve got the place to ourselves and it’s absolutely beautiful, although really cold, 5° f!

Brought the dogs to the beach before we head for the Frozen North this afternoon, and we had it all to ourselves 🙂

Bright and sunny but cold, 20° and much colder with the wind chill.
Beach day?!?

The trails at Saxon Woods are just solid ice in this kind of weather, so I’ve brought Faith for a quick runaround on the beach. She’s actually surprised me by playing around and chasing other dogs (even a German Shepherd!) and having a grand old time 🙂

I love these mornings when we are the first people to put footprints on the trail!
But I think I’m going to need x-mode to get back down the hill when we leave!
