vdb Posted December 2, 2009 Share #6 Posted December 2, 2009 I do like the texture but find the toning too heavy. Would try much less toning...even straight B&W, to see how the texture and tonal range pops out....just my thought... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicamann Posted December 3, 2009 Share #7 Posted December 3, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I agree with Virgil here and would also saying " you need to take this experiment much further".. there is the potential to creating some stunning images....... but you need to find out what really hits the sweet spot, so far I would say you have not found it yet. Thanks for sharing Cheers, JRM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewwenn@mac.com Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted December 3, 2009 Hi, Thanks for the comments. I will certainly try some of the suggestions. I realise I still have much to learn which is the great thing about photography; there is always a challenge to do better.

leicamann Posted December 3, 2009 Share #9 Posted December 3, 2009 Andrew, you might want to think first about how to simplify the image , by framing and using your DOF to edit out any unwanted details coming from the background. When framing pay close attention not only to how your subject is framed but what is happening in the background. With IR you need to look for a more intense , but not direct light, to get that glow..once you find out what works.. you will know better each time what to look for. IR photography be it digital or film takes practice, lots of experimenting and patience. Above all have fun, seeing the world from a very magical "wave length" Remember, intense greens translate best into that pure snowy white your looking for Cheers, JRM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterb Posted December 3, 2009 Share #10 Posted December 3, 2009 Andrew I didn't think ferns could come in any color besides green. But you have succeeded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
