Chinese Garden at The Huntington in IR
A commenter mentioned in my last OTR(or the one before) how much they liked my IR photos. This one it all IR. One of the reasons I got a membership at The Huntington is that it provides a nice setting to experiment with pictures and since I’ve paid up front there’s no cost for an individual visit(it’s $25 to get in on weekdays and $29 for weekends). I’ve changed the way I’m both taking my IR pictures(I’m using filters to further restrict visible light), I’m also taking a visible light photo of the scene and I’ve simplified my processing in Photoshop. I’m pretty happy with the results and hope that you folk feel the same.

Lake with surrounding pavillions.
This is the view north across the lake from the restaurant’s dinning terrace. There’s a Chinese Restaurant in the Chinese Garden, the food’s pretty good. You can see the boat pavilion to the left(it’s shaped like a boat) that we saw in the last photo. The willows(they’re planted too close to the lake) are sprouting their spring leaves and make for some nice IR reflection. It was pretty cloudy towards the mountains which doesn’t make quite as nice a sky as the last two photos.
