Just because most of the photographic world has moved to digital capture and therefore digital processing of images, doesn’t mean infrared is gone forever.<\/p>\n

Today’s image is a classic example of the effects that can be applied in post-processing to garner the same rendition of an image as one captured by infrared film.<\/p>\n

The drama and contrast of the image (as well as yesterday’s post titled ‘lighting the way’) were created with a manipulation of several sliders in Lightroom to simulate the infrared effect. Once the image is converted to greyscale, it is really easy to take the reds, oranges, yellows and greens almost to the extreme maximum (+100) while the blues, purples and magentas are taken in the opposite direction (-100). A word of caution: this techniques does not always apply to all images – in some cases it renders a lot of unwanted grain to the image; in others an extreme fringing on the edges. In the long run, it is a matter of taste. Below is the after and before\u00a0 – notice the drama of the first image.<\/p>\n
