Infrared at The Huntington

IR and visual Stacking.
I started my morning with a trip to The Huntington arriving before it was open to the public(upper level members get early entry). Instead of shooting my IR shots with 590nm filter(it lets in more visible light), I shot with a 720nm filter. The shots come out of the camera looking like a black and white picture with a purple tint. As has become my standard practice with infrared photography, I shoot a visual shot at the same time and combine them when I process them to add some of the visual color back into the picture(mainly blues, reds and browns). If you look behind the pavilion at the center of the picture you may see some orange color. This is the framework for new additions to the Chinese Garden. They’ve started building Phase III to complete the Chinese Garden with new pavilions to the north and the hills on the west.
