Infrared Photography

Some of my best work ever, scanned and presented for your edification. With my discovery of Infrared film, I found the magical quality I'd always been looking for. These are in more or less chronological order, and include images from the Digital Age.

So I hung around and abstracted it even more, shooting totally with infrared film, even though it was drizzling rain. I can't believe it came out!!! What a lovely soft quality it has, which I don't believe would've happened with straight black-and-white film. I must get back to this place someday in the sunshine, though.
    APPROACHING STORM
I was heading back from the Colorado workshop, ambling my way through the New Mexico countryside, when I had what I call one of my "click" moments -- where you're just rolling along looking at the scenery and suddenly CLICK, your inner shutter release goes off. Wow! I immediately slammed on the brakes and backed up, jumping from the car with camera in hand to record what has become one of my most favorite shots ever.
    SADDLED GUARDRAIL
And here we are, back in New Mexico, this time on a workshop to Santa Fe. We'd stopped at a museum/gift shop/dive in the little town of Cerrillos -- famous as the town setting for Young Guns -- and I just couldn't resist this shot of saddles on the guardrail. After printing it out, though, I felt the sky was just too "hmm" for it, which lead to the next shot . . .
