Gaze out upon the urban tapestry of Seattle from the vantage point of Kerry Park, where reality takes on a dreamlike quality in the embrace of the infrared spectrum. The city's iconic skyline, cloaked in the surreal hues of infrared light, transforms into an otherworldly panorama. In this infrared dreamscape, Seattle's essence is distilled into a surreal visual poem. The city's vibrancy and vitality, its connection to both nature and technology, merge seamlessly, inviting viewers to see familiar sights through a new lens – one that whispers of hidden mysteries and unseen dimensions. Limited edition from the Surreal Infrared gallery.
WHAT IS INFRARED PHOTOGRAPHY?
Infrared photography allows photographers to explore the unseen world. Infrared light is just beyond visible light where humans see. Digital cameras have filters covering the sensor that block infrared and U.V. light. By using special filters or having a camera converted to see infrared light, we are exposed to a new world we aren't accustom to seeing.
Check out my Surreal Infrared Gallery for examples of what is possible with infrared photography.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Have you ever thought about getting into infrared photography? Do you have an infrared filter like the Hoya R72 but not sure what to do with it? What about an infrared converted camera? Join Randy Bott Photography for a one day Infrared Photography Workshop. In this workshop, you will learn about setting white balance, focusing issues, and processing techniques and many other aspects of Infrared Photography. The fun part about infrared photography is it's not about the nice sunrise or sunset, it's best done in the middle of the day when the light is harsh.
