    Hi Craig,

    Whoa, partner. You have outdone yourself here. This is truly an arresting photo....great subject and superb perspective. One of my favorites of yours. Dynamite treatment. If this doesn't make the wall, I'm calling the sherrif.

    Awesome Craig. I'd really like to see the color image of this. That would give those of us who don't do IR a better feeling for how the IR changes the various colors/tones. Is that a bronze or copper statue or have you colorized it to suit?

    Howdy You,

    Thanks very much, this shot is looking at them from a different direction, but it's one of the few color images I have of the "Frogs".

    Fascinating. This is a great example of how an accomplished photographer can find an exceptional image (#1) in a prosaic scene (#2). Thanks for posting this, Craig.

    Ohhhh I want one of those in my yard rolleyes1.gif not really,
    but it looks cool .... the IR Shot really does out do the colour shot,
    in so many ways.

    It's amazing how the IR shots look like they are taken in a totally different place when you compare them with the colour shots, no matter what the picture is of.

    Thanks for sharing Craig thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Howdy Skippy,

    Laughing.gif, Well if you come to visit Fort Worth we might be able to get one in your Suitcase:D

    IR just takes an everyday scene and puts a complete different perspective and feel to it. I think that is why IR has been so addictive for me.

    I think this would look awesome as a metallic print. Just me though.
