IR Camera

This was a good weekend. On Saturday, I had the pleasure of teaching another Album Design class at the Calumet Photographic, in Santa Ana, CA. I love it when half the class stays more than an hour after the scheduled end. Oh, I was assuming that meant they where interested and that I was engaging — maybe I’m just too slow getting the information out

On Sunday, I spent the day in San Diego. I hung out with two fellow [b] Schoolers: Kristina Juodyte, from upstate New York, and Eric DosSantos, from Northern California, but studying in San Diego. Changing the way photographers connect. Join The [B] School Today!

I took my infrared only Nikon D100. I had it converted, almost tow years ago, when I bought the D700. Here are few shots from Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo. OK, the first one, obviously, is not IR. The others are. I did a custom white balance off the green leaves (green looks white). After importing them, I desaturated and increased contrast, just slightly.
