Richmond Park

Early Summer and with the fresh vegetation, so it is time for a little Infrared Photography, in nearby Richmond Park.

Walk in the Park

Had a very pleasant walk in Richmond Park the other afternoon, in search of some Autumn colours. I've been to New England this time of year and seen the spectacular Fall colours they have there. So perhaps my expectations were too high - while Richmond Park is a great place to be, there isn't very much in the way of serious Autumn colour. How boring. I did manage to to capture some images and here are a selection.....

 

The blue skies with a little cloud made up for the lack of seasonal colour. Shame about the noise of the aircraft coming into land in nearby Heathrow.

Some More InfraRed

Out yesterday morning to the park, tryting for some more InfraRed photos. For most of the last week the mornings have been quite sunny, early on, before clouding over later on - and as I wanted some blue skies (which turn dark in black & white infrared) it was as early start.

Here are some more of my digital efforts -

 

An issue I'm finding with this technique - see my previous post for this - is that my exposures are a few seconds. Which means if there is a wind I'm getting movement/blurring in some leaves and clouds. Perhaps I could make it feature ?

I also shot a roll of Rollei InfraRed film - all 36 exposures. Must get around to processing it. One day.
