28 Jul 25 Comment I agree! The desaturation gives an old world feeling. Well done. Jul 1st
28 Jul 25 Comment I love this image! Great leading line to man/dog/lighthouse. While the smoke was "bad" for health reasons, it really adds moodiness to the images.
Did you ask the man to walk his dog toward the lighthouse or was this a happy accident?

66 Jul 25 Comment It's a lovely image with the curving road. I would try to add some more drama to the sky if possible. Perhaps the small branches would prohibit this without post processing halos being created. Jul 25th
66 Jul 25 Comment I have seen this location photographed many times, but this IR shot is my favorite! You got lucky with the clouds! Jul 25th
66 Jul 25 Comment I think the sepia tone was a perfect addition to this image. Jul 25th
66 Jul 25 Comment Hmmm, I have never seen an IR portrait image. Now I will have to try it. It does soften the skin. Jul 25th
66 Jul 25 Comment For my tastes, I would prefer that both tracks be included from the start at the lower bottom. Otherwise, I love the curving leading line to the barn. Jul 25th
66 Jul 25 Reply Thanks Melanie Jul 9th
66 Jul 25 Reply Thanks for your warm welcome. It's a continuous journey for sure. I look forward to learning a great deal from this group. Jul 7th
66 Jul 25 Reply I probably should have done more research before I pulled the trigger, but I approaching a deadline for my upcoming vacation. I had an older 6400 that I had planned on converting before realizing it used a different battery. So I traded that in for 7CR. It's good to know you like the Kolari clip in filters because that was my original plan, but decided to cause have a straight 720 conversion. For now, I am happy with converting my IR images to B&W. On my last vacation, my primary camera was the 6700 and used the Apsc lens on the A7CR which worked out pretty good. This upcoming trip, I will "need" my A1 for the Dublin Horse Show, so more gear to lug around. Jul 7th
66 Jul 25 Reply That's a good point! Jul 6th
66 Jul 25 Reply What do you think of this? It is very dramatic. I also added a slight vignette to the lower corners because it was so top heavy with the blacks. Jul 3rd
66 Jul 25 Reply I'll try that, thanks. Jul 3rd
66 Jul 25 Reply That is so kind! It would be helpful for me. I'm available almost anytime other than Wednesday night. Name the time that works best for you. Jul 1st
66 Jul 25 Comment I love how the foliage and stone make good contrast.

What are the advantages using Nik Silver Efex Pro vs Lightroom classic's adaptive B&W?
Jul 1st
66 Jul 25 Comment Great image Melanie! I was also in Thailand this past winter but unfortunately I hadn't purchased my IR camera then. I need to go back retake all my images in IR. This reminds me of Phra Nang Beach but Thailand (as you know) has multiple incredible beaches.

I also have Sony gear. Do you recall what lens you were using?
Jul 1st
66 Jul 25 Reply Thanks Arik, I look forward to learning about IR. At this moment, I am only interested in B&W conversions in IR so I assumed that 720 made the most sense. Probably in a year, I will regret not having full spectrum.
I agree about the sky, it is dramatic enough just with IR.
